This book was enjoyable, thrilling, and just a touch creepy - in a good way!!
I enjoyed this book and found that I couldn't put it down. The beginning is a bit slow but when it picks up, it picks up fast and doesn't let you go. I was turning pages and reading the story much later than I should have been. But I enjoyed it. The story made sense, was interesting and gripping, and I actually cared about the characters. Also, I love the surprise twists - I mean they really did catch me off guard. I did not see some of them coming at all.
Overall a great read and I do recommend it!
