Oh my I loved this book!!! It was different from your typical suspense thriller!! The twist was perfect! I can’t say much because it will give everything away but this was a very quick read and the ghost story aspect mixed in was fantastic!

The end portions feel a bit rushed and contrived but I was gripped and steadily reading for much of this novel.

A large aspect of the conclusion of this book’s plot could be described as potentially transphobic, making a kid conform to a gender identity that isn’t their own

A really well written horror/thriller that whilst initially was a little slow to get into once the pace picks up it’s captivating.

The pictures embedded into the book add to the creepiness and really bring the story together.

Whilst some of the smaller twists can be guessed that vast majority are so unexpected which is something that is difficult to achieve given the amount of horrors/thrillers published. A brilliant book I would absolutely recommend.
