To me, the blurb is the most interesting part of the book. Anyone I talk to about the book I’m reading seem really intrigued when I say, “2 young girls are found dead in a small town and, get this, with their teeth removed!” But I found the ending to be unbelievable and, frankly, ridiculous.
Spoiler
It really frustrates me when the big reveal is actually a child that ends up being the serial killer. It’s always a shocking twist! at the last 5 or so pages with no answers to questions like “How has no one caught this child for so long?” Are they really such a genius that they left no trace at all?
So freaking good, not how I expected it to end. It was slow at first but all the details were so important.

3/5, this was just alright for me. I wanted it to be fast paced but it was easy to put down! I enjoyed some parts and the first half was much stronger than the first

A disturbing novel...more so than Gone Girl. I liked how she felt the words to describe her world appear on her skin. The main character is likable and very very human
