A really slick and unnerving 'things that go bump in the night' story that dances between a haunted house and a possession story. The writer has a great flair for nail-biting sequences and creating that indescribable fear of what's out there in the night.
As thrilling as the scare sequences are, though, it's true the plot sort of limps a bit toward the end and there are a lot of ideas introduced that are never really explained or explored. They don't lessen the intensity but it also doesn't have that feeling at the end of all the pieces finally coming together.

Goodness gracious. This is a chilling book. I absolutely loved it. I now understand 100% why people were raving about this book on insta for quite a while. I was hooked from beginning to end. At some point I wanted to throttle the MC’s but they came through. The goriness is spectacular. The author does a great job at setting that heavy feeling in you chest while everything unravels and even just when you feel like “oh shit, something is about to happen”. Absolutely great. 5 whole stars from me.

A creepy read and well written. However, the ending was not my favorite… at all.
C R E E P Y shhhhiiiit.
10/10 will make your nipples hard with chills.
I would have loved for this to be a novella
..it's about 100p too long...
But ALSO:
Knocked it down 2 stars for the EMBARRASSINGLY bad portrayal of indigenous people.
There's an entire disclaimer in the back discussing how first nation's people are horribly misrepresented in all forms of media.
Cut to: Felix dropping the G**D*** ball big time.
The ending is the MOST anticlimactic.

Insidious meets Paranormal Activity? In a good way. Many scenes that gave me the heebie-jeebies. Great, original story.
