Overall Thoughts:
⁕ The mystery built around the “bad luck” that follows Alice was equal parts suspenseful and terrifying for the first half of the book. I was hooked on finding out who/what was the force behind it, but unfortunately the reveal was a bit lackluster for me.

⁕ The secondary characters were one-dimensional. I was also disappointed that the only development in the main character was explained away by magic.

⁕ The ending felt rushed and unearned.
