A message to those who didn't like this book because it made you uncomfortable: you SHOULD feel uncomfortable when consuming media about children being murdered ✌️

if you're in the mood for a psychological thriller that's as chilling as it is thought-provoking, this is the book for you. just be prepared to be left with a lingering sense of unease long after you've closed the cover. i rated this 3.5 stars for its twisted depravity and deducted stars because the ending felt rushed and i wanted to delve more into the recover process

however, where flynn falls short is with delicacy. given the themes she’s writing about in this one particular, there’s is sometimes a bluntness or sharpness (no pun intended) that comes across as a bit crass.
also the ending feels bare, underdeveloped. the last two chapters feel like a blank white room, like the foundation is there, but no decoration.
