dark mysterious tense fast-paced

4.5

a page turner! very tense buildup the entire time. the short chapters help make it very easy and addicting to read. i was up until 3:30am during the second to last sitting!
i remember seeing this book around but it never interested me bc of the title until i heard good things about it personally

didn’t think the title would be so literal. i wish the reveal in the end was drawn out more.

the cover scares me so i always had it face down lol
