Louis says some ableist shit. You could interpret this as the author agreeing with that stuff, but since Louis is an asshole in other portions of the book too, I think it's just a symptom of the assholery.aleesquer's review

The book reads for a lot of set up for a moment which inherently occurs in the final few chapters of the book, like many older Stephen King books read. Most books which do this often place too much faith in their ending and the whole book falls flat, but the end to this book is so satisfying that it lives up perfectly to its set up which is rare to say.
Overall, a very enjoyable and spooky read with a very satisfying ending. 4/5

And in all reality, if most people had a chance to bring someone they loved back from the dead, especially in those painful first days, wouldn't they give anything to do it?
I didn’t love the condescending way Louis treats Rachel, even if it’s coming from a good place.
