This book was an "Okay with a plus".
This book was a rollercoaster , not of emotions though but of my interest in it.
In some points in the book I was so intrigued and couldn't stop reading and in other points I felt like I needed to force myself through the pages.
Nevertheless, I can still say I liked this book to some extent and a major reason for 'WHY?' is that I really liked the characters ( especially the main character ,Mack) for their complicated and unique life stories.
Story wise, this is not something I'll usually read, and in some points it was too tense for me and making me stressed (but it's just me and my preferences, some people really like tense books) still, it was a nice change of genre.
Overall, this was as I said previously an "Okay+" read, I can't say it was great but it wasn't bad either!
Would I recommend this book? It depends. I can see why some people love this book, and I can see why some people hate it.
It's an unusual genre that either suits you just perfectly or just doesn't suit you at all.
If tense, mysterious death game turned supernatural is your cup of tea, then go for it! If not, I don't reccomend you to pick this up even out of curiosity.
