DNF - The cover makes you think it’s going to be spooky or a horror story. For me, it wasn’t and I could not get into it.

I really enjoyed this one! There were times when it had me on the edge of my seat (literally! I almost fell off the couch a couple times haha) and I could not put it down. There were a few parts that were a bit slow but luckily they were few and far between. Overall a great read! I recommend.

Big thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this one!

This was such a good book! I was expecting more haunted house vibes from the cover but it still had a great storyline. I was not expecting the twist! I think it was scary in the fact that how can people be so deranged. I liked the psychological aspect of it as well. It had multiple POVs as well which were hard to follow at first but I think it really helped tell the story. This would make a great movie!

James Markert is a pro at writing horror with a paranormal element. I loved the twists and turns that kept me in the dark enough to be surprised by the identity of the antagonists
