it was ok, in all honesty I was only reading the rest so I wouldn’t have to put it on hold again. The main character frustrated me a lot, she kinda reminded me of the main characters that Riley Sager writes (I don’t really enjoy Riley Sager’s writing). It was especially annoying when something supernatural was in the process of happening to her & she still insisted that it was a hallucination (even when it ended up hurting her & she felt the pain from the wound, she still kept saying in her head that it was a hallucination). She also mentioned her weight a lot, which was kinda triggering for me (since I have some issues with my weight & my body perception 🙃) All in all, it was an ok read, I probably wouldn’t reread it again though 🥲
