Are you ready for a supernatural horror story with a twist that is beautifully shocking? This book had me hooked and staying up all hours just to complete it.
While some bits of the ending felt a little rushed and the epilogue left me wanting, the last hundred pages were completely immersive and teased nicely the other worldy possibilities.
Overall the story was well written, the plot has a spectacular twist, the characters are relatable and the antagonist(s) are fantastically repulsive.
