• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

This was an interesting premise for a psychological thriller, but it feel flat for me in a lot of ways. It didn't feel scary for me, it felt tedious to continuously read the unfortunate things that were happening to the main characters.  The ending was good, if a bit sad. 3.5 Stars. Decent, Okay Read. I won't be reading the sequel.
