Okay, this book was... not bad but not good either. I finished it, but I absolutely didn't care about the characters. I want to believe that the author made all of them insufferable on purpose
just so it would be easy to kill them.
Although I am somewhat happy with the ending, because Jane was the worst of all of them, and having her forced to relive the nightmare makes me a bit happy.

Would I recommend this book? No, but it's not worth 2 stars, more like 2.5. If I liked the characters better, maybe I would have enjoyed the book more because the idea and the writing is pretty good.
