Like the 2nd book, the events from this one seemed sporadic and not put together quite so well. I also found myself yelling at the characters all throughout the book because so many decisions were just insanely stupid. HOWEVER, I still enjoyed it and the ending gave me the craziest goosebumps. I liked that this book was told from the perspective of the 2 sons rather than only Cathy, as it has been. Definitely going to keep reading and finish this wonderfully disturbing series that makes me feel so many emotions.
