I thought this was a solid horror. I didn't have as many issues with the ending as a lot of people have seemingly had. I kind of liked that the book wasn't just following Rachel and trying to get her kid back for the whole thing. There were times when I thought the switching between perspectives/insight into the characters got confusing (specifically when it happened a lot during the book). Overall it was solid read.
