What I loved about the book was the focus of the cult, and learning it's lore. Along with the nightmarish Old Friends that accompanied the cultists. I enjoyed reading the interviews, trying to piece together everything, watching as Kyle experiences out of body nightmares. That was all fantastic. 
I think the reason why I didn't rate it four stars was because of its length. I love a long book, however, there were moments where it felt like the pages were turning but nothing was happening. And while I loved the concept, there wasn't much about the book that enraptured me. 
It was, still, written very well, and the lore in the book was fantastic.
