Horror is so not my jam. I just see plot holes all over the place, which may be necessary for the story, but they don’t work for me. I think Cassidy tried to do something interesting here with the theme of fathers and the roles they play… but it didn’t land for me. 

The ending was way too contrite and “they all lived happily ever after” (or the one who lived did at least) for me as well.

I jumped into this book not knowing anything about it, and I suggest you do the same. This book took off from the beginning. Then it goes in a completely different direction, which blew my mind. I was on the edge of my seat. This book is about fear and what can happen if you let it control you. The ending wasn’t the best because it left me with questions, but it didn’t take away from my enjoyment. This was my first book by this author, and I loved it. I will definitely read more of his work. What a unique experience!
