Great book, pretty graphic descriptions that happened to other people, not book characters.

Amazing book! Went in expecting a dark, scary book- got a dark scary book. Characters are SO well developed and you leave feeling extremely connected to them all. The story has so many twists and turns and it was so entertaining to read. Many moments were cringeworthy- which I look for in a horror book- so I loved it.
