I read this for a book club- it was okay. I did enjoy the plot and pacing! There were some spots in the dialogue that made me cringe- it was just obviously an adult writing what they think teen slang is, haha. Also hard to buy the "no cell service" trope in a current day, wealthy Omaha neighborhood. That being said, I did read it in 2 days, so it was a fun/easy read!

mysterious tense fast-paced

IM SCREAMING! I had sooooo much fun with this book and loved all the horror references. The ending killed me, no pun intended. It did need another pass by an editor just for a few grammar things I noticed and just a bit of confusion for me in the writing here and there but like I said so much fun!
