The concept of this book was excellent. An older sister, doing whatever it takes to keep her brothers safe. A never ending Nightmare that becomes far too real each time, a sign that the boys are in danger. Evil doppelgängers. But I found myself having to force myself through it the further in I got.
Jamie and Dre are really, really annoying. They’re both so selfish that I found it laughable that Calla would still want to protect them. Even Calla annoyed me a few times throughout this book.
However, the nightmare and what it contains were extremely captivating to me! The author’s writing style is very vivid and very graphic, which can be seen as either really good or really bad depending on how sensitive to gore you are.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for my copy in exchange for this review!
