This book wasn't bad. I did guess the ending to an extent, so that was a little bit predictable. Still a good read.

This is a good, intriguing book. It's a lot of before and after, with many character narratives, so it takes a while to get the stories figured out, but it all comes together. Not scary, but definitely creepy.

I really enjoyed this book. It gave me "The Haunting of Hill House" vibes. It's definitely creepy, but I wouldn't say scary. Would recommend.

Books dont scare me, but as for a book, this is about as close as it comes to being scary. It gave me The Exorcist vibes. Good book.

Not a bad book. It's not a super face read, but it makes you want to finish to find out the conclusion.
