This mystery took many turns I was not expecting at all.
I think the dreams/hallucinations and their indistinguishability from reality was the best part of this novel. As a reader, I was questioning if what was happening was real or not just as the main character was.
This book was written in a way that your imagination could take over and it made every description even scarier. By the end, I was tearing through the pages trying to read as fast as I could because I was so invested and curious about what would happen next.
