Another awesome read from Anya! I did not see the end coming at all. Had me guessing what was really happening the whole time. I really enjoyed this one and can't wait to read even more of hers!

The family was not compelling, the big reveal was disappointing, the setting was boring.

It was good, but I was a little disappointed since I was expecting more creepy and scary stuff to happen. And the husband really irked me in this book. Like why did he let it get this far and do nothing at first? The ending isn't bad; I was hoping it would go in the other direction, but it's not, which is sad and tragic, to be honest.

Anyway, if you love horror and need a fast-paced read, I highly recommend this book.

I think it was well written/read. Reads like a film and is quite predictable but horror tends to be that way. 

Removed a point and a half because of animal death and the description of the other deaths in here

Triggers galore! So be careful before diving into it. It was good but I still have unanswered questions so I am giving it 4 stars.
