Trying to delve into more horror and this book was incredible for me. It was everything I wanted in a horror. LOTS of TW so be sure to check those out. I felt the characters we're developed just enough, like we still don't know everything about them and I love that mystery. It was truly shocking, nauseating, and the idea was really...fleshed out.
