dark emotional mysterious tense fast-paced

• Diverse cast of characters? N/A
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

i really enjoyed this read although i did think it was going to be a bit more gorey. once I realized it was less slasher and more psychological it really really grew on me. the characters are insane but i kind of love them ? they are NOT loveable. they need sever psychiatric help. but i love them.
