Rob feels like a good addition to the story, and I like the hints of possibility that Ted is gay.
The ending of this book was unexpectedly tender and comforting.

This feels like another 'Haunting of Hill House' to me, insofar as it is an excellent example of how the medium of reading can be leveraged for an incredible horror story. Try to go in knowing as little as possible to enjoy this as much as possible but definitely don't hesitate to theorycraft about what's going on! It's worth every page

Not a challenging read, but you do have to get used to how Ted speaks. Once you do though, it’s a very fast read.
Really dark, but so good and I can tell it was well researched.
