5.0

This was soooo creepy and 110% a horror book, all the bug stuff!! Eek!! Obsessed with how such a complete novel was started and ended in such a short amount of time, this author is slowly becoming a fave (I also love the new covers that have come out)

How fucking creepy. This book really did a good job of making the horror creep up until the last few chapters, all while balancing a genuinely funny main character. I could so relate with Sam and found her delightful.
