This was my absolute favorite read of this spooky season. It had many things I tend to like in books, it involves a cult, it read like a dystopian novel, and it included in the plot the discussion of important social issues, mainly reproduction rights.

The cover absolutely intrigued me at first, but what really sold it to me was the first chapter… from the moment I read it I was convinced I had a five-star read in front of me! And I was not disappointed!!! It was everything I was hoping to read, it was dark and spooky, it kept me at the edge of my seat, and it had creepy dolls. What else could I ask for?

I will not get into much detail as I don’t want to spoil it to anyone who might want to read it, but I want to say that if you became interested at all by my poor excuse of a review, please consider giving this book a chance! You will love it (hopefully)😁!!!
