The Cruel Dark by Bea Northwick
3.0
Thank you to NetGalley and Northwick books for this ARC read!
This book proved to be an ideal choice for the spooky season! With thrilling ghostly pursuits, the discovery of a clandestine diary, and expertly crafted moments of intensity, it offered a truly captivating reading experience. I must confess that I found myself utterly in the dark about the plot's direction and couldn't predict what was going to unfold until I reached the 75% mark (clearly, my foreshadowing skills were lacking). However, as the mystery began to unravel, it all fell into place, leaving my jaw dropped to the floor!
The enigmatic romance in the story was especially enchanting and added an extra layer of intrigue that I thoroughly enjoyed.
