It took me quite a while to gather my thoughts about this book to write them down. I think it would make a good movie. It was atmospheric and eerie.
The first 40% were interesting, I read those pages in one sitting. The middle 40% not so much, so I put it down for a while and read different books. It just felt like nothing really happened. The last 20% were fine but I wished for more closure, more solving. If the middle part would‘ve been a bit more fast paced than the whole book itself and the ending wouldn’t feel so rushed to me. It just ended kinda abruptly imo 🤷🏽‍♀️
