This is what I expect from a horror novel. I loved it every second from the first page. Not for the faint hearted, this had me pooping my pants scared

This was a bit of a slog to behind with… 50 minute chapters should not exist! Especially with so many chapter breaks! 

Aside from the long chapters once the story got going I was hooked. 

I was a bit frustrated by the ending but I won’t say anything without spoilers! 

Otherwise it was an entertaining read that genuinely creeped me out!
