I enjoyed this book; however, I had difficulty staying interested. But I could be biased as I read it over a few months, and this is the first "horror" book I've read. I enjoy horror movies and tv shows, and I was intrigued by the descriptions of particular "horror/scary" moments. It made it feel more real to me, but at the same time, less scary. Also, now that I'm looking back on it, the story was interesting, considering the information we learned near the end.

I need more time to digest this read before writing a productive review.
