Wow. Bird Box is always my benchmark for the last horror book that fully creeped me out, that made me hesitant to read it at night. I didn't have that experience here - I wasn't SCARED. But unsettled? Yes. Creeped out? Yes. Desperately yelling at these characters to DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT? Yes. But I have to say, I almost stopped reading b/c of the horrible formatting that I don't really understand. But I pushed through and am glad I did, b/c it definitely, in the end, lent itself to the whole unsettling vibe and the confusion of being a kid in this situation.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC!
