Sleep Tight had a lot of potential, but I think the reveals ended up being a bit lackluster. The things I came up with in my end tended to be more surprising than what actually happened. Now, that didn't happen with all of the reveals, but it happened enough that I'm slightly disappointed with the book. On top of that, the author threw in a bit of paranormal in the middle that was never explained or touched again in the rest of the story. That was really the first thing that kind of took me out of the story.

I know there were things I enjoyed about this book, but the disappointments have stayed in my head more than the things I enjoyed about it. I just keep thinking about its potential to be great, and it just didn't happen.
