I received an ARC copy of this book by BookSirens, and I am leaving this honest review voluntarily.
This was kind of like watching an episode of supernatural, but in book format and with more of a Stephen King background. It was such an enjoyable read. I loved the brothers. Their characters were relatable and lovable, and of course, we love a good bit of teenage angst. I also like that we dabbled in small romantic moments, so the story wasn't all doom and gloom.
The things I didn't like as much was that the pacing throughout the book was inconsistent - not bad, just inconsistent. The beginning dragged on, the middle went quick, and the ending slowed down a bit, too. I also half predicted the twist. I didn't predict it to the extent that it was, so it was still a shock, but I just wish it came more out of the blue.
The ending wasn't what I wanted, but it wrapped up the story well and in a way that I didn't even think was possible.
Overall, it was a great read. Thank you for letting me take this adventure!
