3.0

Maybe this book just wasn’t for me, but I didn’t enjoy any part of it. It wasn’t scary or unsettling or anything, it was just gross. 

The characters were very one-dimensional, so I didn’t care about them, so there was no real tension. The main character’s entire personality could be summed up with: stupid to the point of absurdity and so meek that it doesn’t make a lot of his actions make sense. 

I know a lot of people like this book a lot, so maybe it’s just me. 

Also I’m not going to include content warning because basically it’s every content warning.
