this book was SO creepy. very well written. the beginning was a little slow but by page 100 i was pretty hooked. while i guessed a bit what happened halfway through, there was definitely something in the end that got me. i think because the reveal wasn’t a total surprise i am knocking off a star but the twisted way we got there is the reason its def still keeping 4. i found myself appalled basically the entire second half of the book. all of these characters are so messed up beyond belief. i will warn that this book is graphic so just be careful.
