Went into this book completely blind and it really surprised me. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. the ending was really good and i enjoyed the writing my only complaint is how the parents were wrote with being the “typical atheist vegan liberal” I found it very strange and I don’t think they needed to be wrote in that way for the plot, plus the only Asian character being obsessed with anime and drawing whiskers on?? I had some of ending spoiled for me but it still shocked me and I was genuinely creeped out at certain parts of the book.
