Had a hard time getting into the book, but started to see a larger story playing out. I then found out my assumptions were wrong and I actually didn't like the book. But I persevered and ending up enjoying the book. Not an overly scary book, but quite horrifying.

The book could have used another pass through editing. Britney has an interesting story to tell, but struggles to really express it well. It was still a pretty enjoyable read.
