When I finished this book last night, I was unsure how I was going to rate it. I had a bit of a "Really? THAT'S what we were working towards?" feeling. However, in thinking about it this morning, I have more appreciation for how Echlin took a popular trope in thrillers right now (is the mom going crazy or is the kid evil?) and 1) did it well, making the MC feel real; and 2) gave us a whiff of the paranormal in a very clever (ha!) and not over-the-top kind of way. I think readers will enjoy this and have a lot to talk about!
