I absolutely loved this book. It was so fast-paced yet not enough to make it seem difficult to understand. Like it was the right amount for a thriller book. I love how the author focused more on the plot and twists in the book and less on giving justification for why the evil person was like that. The storytelling was gripping and I really was kept at the edge of my seat while reading this. 

I highly recommend this for people who are into psychological thriller. It’s not an entirely new idea of psychological horror but the plot is still somehow new and unpredictable. It’s hard to describe it. I guess you just HAVE to read it.
