I wanted to read this book because I saw that a movie adaptation came out recently. I saw the trailer for the movie and then found out it was based on a book, so I decided to read it.
I liked how mysterious everything in the story seemed to be, and I actually didn’t have an idea of how it was going to end. The book was pretty slow at some points which made it a bit difficult to get through, but it picked up towards the middle. I’ve been a lot of books with people being stuck somewhere recently, but this one was distinct enough to separate itself from the others.
I enjoyed it and thought that it was an interesting story. I’m also really curious about the movie adaptation and I want to watch it to see what similarities and differences it has. I feel like this premise would work pretty well as a movie. I recommend reading this book if you haven’t already!
