The book is fantastic and I loved the plot. Multiple stories all heading towards each other in a perfect circle. The concept and rules of Hell in the novel are all done really well. Through the entire novel you are making discoveries and connections as a reader, so if you don’t like being confused and kept in suspense while reading it’s not for you.  Few reasons I’m not giving 5 stars is that the book is easily digestible, except for one plot point where the details are muddled. Since the book bounces around so much I think this plot point gets somewhat lost, so when I finished the novel I had to sit down and map it out.  Also, the dad has a very unsettling attraction to his daughters 14/15 year old friend and you hear about it a lot. I’m also unsure how I feel about the ending. Spoiler- it takes you literally right back to the beginning, like nothing happened and there was basically no growth from Peyote. Why do that to your reader? But overall for sure read this book.
