father Karras, you will be missed
 

I went into this book completely blind, I had a very vague idea of the plot and I'm happy I didn't watch the movie before. 

I found a bunch of well constructed characters, with believable fears and motivations, and also some secrets. I really liked that possessiZvn wasn't their first and only explanation. 

I was expecting something more gory but now I'm glad it wasn't like that. 

My favorite character was Karras, I love finding a great character.
