Reasonably well-written, but the twist/conclusion did not work for me at all.

This is one of the craziest books I have read. I did not expect the ending at all. But I loved it all the same

I was trying to read something spooky before Halloween so I picked up this old 2016 BEA ARC, and there were creepy elements to this one that I liked. But the ending completely ruined and cheapened the rest of the story for me. It also didn't make sense; I essentially wished I hadn't finished the book because I would have enjoyed it more if I had stopped halfway through.
