- I think the author built up suspense and created an uneasy atmosphere at the park
- I grew to really liking for some of the characters. I was really rooting for them

I don't read thrillers or horror normally, but I heard good things about this book and author, as well as seeing it on a sapphic book rec list.
The relationship is very minor, very shared trauma bonding lol.
I liked all the characters despite how many there are. I have watched a lot of competition shows in my life, so it did have that vibe of a large group, and then seeing snapshot videos of each competitor's background so you sympathize with them. Personally I didn't have any trouble keeping track of everyone.
This book gave me serious anxiety haha. I feel like it delivered on that thriller aspect. I never felt like it was slow or that I could put it down. I really sped through this book because it was unputdownable.
The only issue I have is the ending because it felt wildly abrupt.
