dnfed at page 64.

I already get the sense that it's about a cult and the way the book is heading just doesn't seem interesting to me. It's super slow at this point. It's basically just one of those boring adult fiction books my mom reads with absolutely no mystery (sorry mom lol). I think my time is better spent reading the wikipedia article to see what happens. Just not the book for me, but other people gave it great reviews!

3.5 rounded to 4⭐️
The characters were all so twisted and evil in their own way. There were some parts where it felt like it was such a drag but it got quite interesting towards the end hence the 3.5 stars.

Confusing, interesting. Really had me trying to figure out the mystery as I read. However near the end I was feeling very underwhelmed with how the story was unfolding and then the last page or so of the book changed everything!
