* Only read this if cliffhangers don't piss you off. You will walk away from this book with very few answers.
The ending was not my favorite. There was a lot of repetition when writing the main character's thoughts and actions that I found pulled me out of the story.
I liked the foreshadowing and clues that appeared to point to different people. I suspected part of the ending but there was a twist I didn't expect.
The characters are teenagers living in a small town where last year, a series of murders occurred in the week leading up to halloween. This year, the murders start to repeat despite the killer being locked in prison.
