I never knew where the plot was going next. Confusing, intriguing, different to anything else I’ve read.

This book was eerie and dark. The imagery of rotting and dead things was quite descriptive. The plot dragged a bit at times. Something still felt missing by the end of the book.

Na ezeket a fordulatokat nem láttam előre, az biztos.

Másoknak talán egyértelmű lett volna, de ez talán azért lehet mert még kifejezetten új vagyok a horror műfajhoz.

Nagyon élveztem, a narratíva nagyon elképzelhető volt a karakterek pedik csodásak.

Imádtam Vivit és Iris is meglepően jó és talpraesett főszereplő volt. Grey egy teljesen más kategória, de mint karakter őt is nagyon bírtam. Megérthető volt mindannyiuk motivációja.

Az csak bónuszt adott a tetszéshez hogy Vivi leszbikus és a rock bandája Budapesten is fellépett (akkor is ha ezt nem láttuk szó szerint, csak megemlítve volt)
