Quick, highly intriguing read. Took a partial point off because of all the unanswered questions. I wanted more... In a good way? Very interesting characters. I wish I could get more of their stories.

This book was so much fun to read and each story had its own way of drawing you in and keeping you until the end. 
The first story was my favourite and I found the second story to be a little too drawn out with some unnecessary plot points. Overall I really enjoyed this book.

A really good read! Kept me hooked the whole way through. A lot of people dislike it, and I see why, but I love psychological horror like this, so it was right up my alley.
