Talk about creepy. Not my usual genre, but listened to the audiobook on the recommendation of an acquaintance. Definitely utilises the medium more than any other book I’ve “read” before. A very gripping tale, with a satisfyingly unsatisfying ending, however I do feel like it jumped the shark  enough for me to disconnect from the horror. Plus, psychopaths make for somewhat boring character studies.
