this book was very strange and often times hard to read. it’s split into three parts that are from 3 different perspectives of correlating characters. The first part was dark and very fast paced. The second part was incredibly hard to read because it was so uncomfortable and was like a medium pace. The third part was the slowest pace but still very good. This book was so well written and intriguing. I would recommend it to anyone who likes psychological horror with heavy character development.
