I was entertained, went a bought this book for some reason I thought it was more adult horror but it read for YA horror and was skeptical if it’ll be good. I enjoyed it. The ending was good and the twists were interesting (even tho they were slightly predictable sometimes)

Whatever possessed me when I was younger to step away from this book…WHY? This book was SO good. I loved everything about it. Granted, I did predict a lot of the plot twists EXCEPT FOR THE LAST ONE. <spoiler I still can’t believe Minnie died. She was a toxic friend, but she was also mentally unstable. And let me say I have a very high tolerance for messed-up deaths. THIS BOOK LITERALLY MADE ME GAG.

Meg + T.J. are couple goals.

This book needs to be talked about more. I loved it.

I recommend this book to anyone and everyone. SO good.
