This is a psychological thriller. The author builds complex suspense through out the whole story and leaves shivers down a reader's spine all the way til the very last sentence.

The atmosphere in this book is insane. It’s so eerie from the very first page. I didn’t find myself getting very attached to the main character, although she was incredibly well written, but the plot and atmosphere made up for it tenfold.

Although I did enjoy the aesthetic of this book, the ending made me so mad at the author that I can’t rate it any higher than this.
