It was really good! Far darker than the first one and definitely not for the faint of heart, but I enjoyed it. Not as much as the first but it was still good and I liked the conclusion. I’m excited to see more of them in sibel’s and Molly’s books, but their story feels complete.

I don't understand the hype with these two books. Am I slightly mentally unstable and think a personal stalker sounds like a good time? Yeh a little. But these books were repetitive and boring. I made myself read this one immediately after haunting, because I knew I would never read it otherwise. They both could be 200 pages shorter.
