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.

4.0

The focus on the decay in nature really worked for me in this book. It really upped the creep factor. I also loved the horror element. There was just this crawling feeling of creeping terror that grew inside me throughout the whole book. That being said, it was nice to have some humor every once in a while and Tyler’s character really brought that. What I didn’t need though, was the high school bullying. Obviously it’s a ya book, so high school drama is to be expected, but it just didn’t hit for me. also it has to be said that some of these characters have REMARKABLE pain tolerance.

While there is no incest in this book

the main character has one line where she implies to her sister's boyfriend that she loves her as much as he does, which given all other descriptions of their relationship in this book, reads to me as incestuous. But also, I don't have siblings, so this line might have been meant entirely as sisters.

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)
