The world-building is fantastic, and the author really drags you in to the torture the sisters are going through as they await to see who will be the next to die. There are so many twists and turns that at a certain point even the reader is unsure of what is real and what is not.

I was able to guess a couple of the twists as information was revealed (though I never got anything exactly correct), and the romance seemed unnecessary, but overall a fun time.

Some of the characters felt a little flat and underdeveloped, and I wish there had been some more worldbuilding when it came to explaining the religion and beliefs of the island. I felt a little confused at the end of the book because I felt some tings could have been explained better about the world beforehand.
Overall, I enjoyed this read and I'm excited to read the sequel next month!

This is not a book to read if you suffer from paranoia or derealization. The mc is made to doubt reality and overall being driven to madness is a major theme in the book.mariners_maniac11's review against another edition
