 If this book was just about Travis and the cult I probably would've loved this book. But after his chapters the plot just became jumbled. The ending was very anticlimactic and left me wanting more.

I spent most of the book confused, and the twists and explanations felt like a reach but a very original plot and like-able main characters. “The Village (2004)” vibes.
