3.0

This book is inspired by a Charles Mason type cult/murder and reads like a YA novel. The story is about a young girl who has lack luster parents and falls into this cult looking for acceptance and love. I wanted to devour this book like a crazy thriller but ended up reading about how much this girl hated herself and was desperate for validation with no character development.

3.5

honestly when reading the beggining to the middle of this book i was prepared to give it a 5. however when i made it to the end and finally finished, i was kind of disappointed. it wasn’t a bad ending, just felt like it was missing something. some positives though, this book has some amazing quotes and i think emma cline is a great writer, and really has a way with words, which made the book very enjoyable. however i do still have to give it just a 3.5, again just felt like something was missing. ps don’t let this review deter you from reading the book id say it’s definitely worth a read, especially if your interested in the hippie cult-y? vibes.
