I bought this book after seeing a recommendation for it on tiktok. It is from the same author as Perks of Being a Wallflower, and even though it's very different than his first book, it was incredibly well written. It is a slow build but managed to keep me hooked and wanting to know what happened next. The characters were multi-dimensional and I enjoyed how the story was constantly switching POV's. The imagery was vivid and truly creepy at times and I think I'll never look at a deer the same way again. I found myself scratching my arm while I was reading and had to make myself stop. The ending was intense and perhaps a bit rushed, but still good.
