This was beyond terrifying, gave me nightmares and had to take several breaks . Holy moly .
I am a Darcy Coates fan and this book did not disappoint. What exactly is the Stitcher-man or monster- made it a page-turner and I liked all the characters. The plot became a bit predictable but I still enjoyed it.

Where He Can't Find You is the first book that I have ever read by Darcy Coates. Whew! When I tell you my heart was RACING it was racing.
This YA novel follows a group of teens in a small town who are trying to figure out the serial killer who dismembers their victims then sews them back up, thus giving the nickname The Stitcher. The need to find out who The Stitcher is grows more frantic once Abby's sister, Hope, is taken.
Although this is classified as an young adult book, I did find that this book was quite unsettling. It was the perfect spooky read for the Halloween season, but if you love horror, you'll enjoy this one year round.
I give this one 3.5 stars, only because while I was on the edge of my seat this entire time reading this book, I don't like the feeling of panic that it gave me. There were times that I had to put my Kindle down because I could actually feel my anxiety creeping in. HOWEVER, I feel like Darcy Coates wants her readers to feel this and if that's the case she hit the nail on the head
Where He Can't Find You is available on November 7th.

This was a good book. I had no idea what it was about when I decided to read it. I'd seen it recommended quite a few times so gave it a shot. I'm glad I did.
I haven't been reading YA at all lately having changed reading tastes (though there is nothing wrong with YA of course!) I didn't realize that this was YA when I started so at first I was sort of blah about it. However, I very quickly found myself completely hooked.
This story has it all. It has a moderate pace, spooky vibes, great characters, and a super fun ending. I 100% recommend this one if you like horror but don't want something so scary it'll keep you up at night. At least once you finish it, though while reading it you might miss a bit of shut eye
