3.5 - I enjoyed the story. I think the narrator doing other voices outside Charity’s voice was okay. Love the thoughts around the final girl for it to only turn into a real life trying to survive thriller. The writing did bring me character by character and just waiting for the moment ish got real. Always love a book with a good queer representation 

Was not expecting the route it took for the lake to have such a history but it was cool yet weird. Somethings you can call before revealed if you pay attention. Also the main character having issues that has nothing to do with the lake brings another depth to the story.

I liked that ending. Was not expecting it and the final person did what they needed to do.
