“Hidden Pictures” revolves around Mallory Quinn, a 21-year-old recovering addict who becomes the nanny for Ted and Caroline Maxwell’s five-year-old son, Teddy. During her summer watching Teddy, Mallory begins to suspect that Teddy is in danger and that she is either in the middle of a supernatural conflict or suffering mental instability, possibly because of her drug use.

Was not expecting this to be fatphobic Christian conservative propaganda with subtle hints of racism. Wish I had checked more of the reviews before reading this.

Love the story...the foreshadowing gave away the real twist.  I'm not sure why I couldn't give it a four except to say it just didn't sit well with me.  I felt the author was trying to say something that I just couldn't understand.

This book was a quick and spooky read! I really liked it-guessed some of the twists but none of the major ones.
