Normally I don’t get too spooked by thrillers or horror, but I did feel myself getting scared at certain parts. An unexpected ending. I’m not sure I’ll remember much about this thinking back in the future.

Very emotional! It gives enough that you can partially figure out what is going on about halfway through, but not enough until the end. It's a great story full of plenty of emotions.
