Holy crap. That's the way this book left me feeling after finishing it.

The plot and storyline of this entire book was perfect. The small leads revealed in every chapter had me thinking about scenerios non-stop when I wasn't reading. All of the suspects had so many strings attached and yet the ending of this made so much sense. Not to mention I did not expect it at all.

I think it's safe to say I won't shut up about this book for a long time.

I think all of the characters were amazingly written but Pip and Ravi have a special place in my heart. They were the best duo for this.

Throughout the book, I always felt like I was right there with them; experiencing everything and being scared when something eery came up.

All in all, I would easily recommend this book to anyone and I already have. 

This would definitely be a 6 star book if there was such a rating!

I wasn’t sure about that his book at first and next thing you know, I’m finishing it. Absolutely worth the hype! So good! It is most definitely YA and has stupid teens making stupid choices that aren’t always realistic, but books don’t always have to be realistic or make sense to be good. This is one of those books!

This book was literally AMAZING. I was super surprised with the plot twists and every scene was insane. There were so many characters that I was so suspicious of and even if they weren't the main person, I loved how developed their stories were. I don't even know what to say because this book was just so amazing. You seriously have to read it.
