I enjoyed the read, overall. 
I had hoped things would end differently with sawyer. But when the end of his story really came out, there was hope for character development that didn’t happen. 

I enjoyed the cast of characters. Reading from  highschool closest boy pov really takes me back. 
I didn’t really feel the horror aspect of the book and found many of the descriptions to be confusing. Very pretty, but confusing. 
Otherwise. I did enjoy the book. And I would like to read more from this author.
