oddly enough though, i really enjoyed it - the author has an addictive way of writing and weaving the story together, leaving you wanting more, even though you’d rather not continue on.
it is quite predictable, but not in a negative way, it makes you want to continue on to see if it’s truly going in the direction you hope it won’t, and creates such dread within you.
not a book i would necessarily just recommend to anyone, and definitely read trigger warnings - there’s some heavy stuff in here. will definitely be looking into the second book soon.
perfect for a start to the halloween season.

Overall i think it was a good read to get our of a reading slump but the werinig, althought beatiful at parted, needed to be better at some points, specially develpment-wise. I loved the idea of intercalating present, past and the letters but theres something in how this is written that makes me go ehhhh.
