Thank you Net Galley, Tor Publishing Group and the author of this book for an opportunity to review this ARC.

Let’s start with the fact that this books cover is so awesome! I am a sucker for a neat and fresh cover.

This book was such an amazing book. It had that perfect dark chilling horror factor, psychological thriller aspect…it was all the things I love most in a book. I gobbled all of it up!!! The character development, world building and dialogue was perfection. I felt as if I could picture all of it as I read. I felt the characters seemed so realistic to me.

I went into this book 100% blind as I usually do and I was NOT disappointed. The twists and turns and guessing and sitting on the edge of my seat is what I live for!!!! This was such an amazing read that I can’t not share this with all of my fellow bookish friends.

I read this book in a few sittings because I had to carefully take in all that I was reading, it stumped me in a few places but — I couldn’t stop, I couldn’t place it down. I just kept wanting more and more.

I can’t wait to read more from this extremely talented author!!! This is shelved on my top books of 2023!

Race and put this on your TBR NOW!

Couldn’t get into it, gave it 10% on audiobook but I just didn’t care about anybody or what was going on. The building up of tension/mystery wasn’t strong enough to keep me there.

So boring nothing happened for so long that when something did I had to reread to understand, then back to nothing happening to a boring and unlikeable character.
