"It was my job to kill her." 
"Was it? Or was it your job to stop her?" She leans back from the table, cradling her coffee mug between her hands. 

This book was good, but it didn't live up to my expectations. I wasn't shocked or that much impacted, but I have to say, it was pretty creepy and overall, a quick and fun read.

I think this is my first time reading horror. I really enjoyed the creepy parts, and it's got a little bit of humour too. Although, I do think the romance seems a little rushed? and I didn't feel connected to any characters. Plot-wise, it was okay. There was nothing that shocking
except Tybalt's death (YOU WENT TOO FAR, OBEAHMAN!)
, I saw most of it coming, but still, it was good.
