pacing was a bit wonky. love how the historical stuff was interwoven into the story. the descriptions were very visceral and easy to relate to which made the story’s overall sense of tension and fear very tangible. the ending was rushed and some of the dialogue was quite a bit corny and felt dated despite it being published only 5 years ago since almost too much very 2020 slang was incorporated
