My all-time favorite novel. I have read it cover-to-cover probably six times during my teens and twenties. It's my go-to recommendation for people who are interested in trying a "horror" novel (I'm trying to win them over). I love this book dearly!

The plot of this book was very interesting and scary in a much more real life sense. I had a hard time getting into it at the beginning and began to feel more invested later on. I understand why there were so many characters but I found it hard to keep up with and was confused at times.
