4.0

Such a different book from what I usually go for, but loved it! Super fast paced and just the right side of supernatural.

I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel about the ending when it became apparent that Elise got away, but found myself reflecting afterward about the story being something of a metaphor for toxic friendships that have run their course.

I think I’ll be thinking of this book for a while!
