This book was amazing. I've never read any sort of murder mystery or crime novel before and this book was incredible. I must admit, I read this book in a matter of a day and a half and stayed up much to late reading it. 
First of all, I really loved how this book was written with Pip's journal/notes making up a large part of the writing. The way the book was narrarated was incredibly real and nothing about the characters, setting or plot felt fake or forced at all. 
Second of all, the plot twists and writing through out the novel gave me shivers multiple times. It was scary at times and I loved it!
This book was not slow at all amd as I mentioned before, it had me from the first page till the end, which did not disappoint.
I definitely would recommend this book to anyone, regardless of their experience with murder, crime or mystery novels! It's amazing!
