I liked this book! The overall mystery of this island and what is happening is so intriguing, I thoroughly enjoyed reading most of it in 1 sitting ! It is not a long book, and I think it could've done with some more content towards the end, maybe some closure on these mysterious events that occurred, but that's up for personal opinion. It is definitely still worth the read, I think it does end well and shows the importance of our memories and how they shape our lives ! :)
Graphic: Body horror and Police brutality
Moderate: Death and Death of parent
