Read content/trigger warnings beforehand! There is difficult content that could make this unenjoyable if you don't know ahead of time (there are multiple car accidents and as someone who has survived a pretty big one myself, it did kind of trigger me a little. Not enough to deter me from finishing the book tho).

For me it was a fast paced slow burner. Some things I saw coming, like Emmy being Fosterâs daughter and not Levâs. His darkness and abuse, were there all the time, underneath the love bombing, doing Godâs work and bringing people back from the death, allegedly⌠I could see where he was going, you know?
The chapter that had Lo being tortured and burned was hard to read, the way itâs written⌠I felt my stomach twisting and kept saying âno, no, noâ out loud. Thinking thatâs something Bea, Rob, Jeremy and others went through is heartbreaking. But thatâs the reality in a lot of cults and shady religious groups. They break you and isolate you so they have this power over you, and then abuse you without worry of repercussions.Â
What a nice book, I have to say.
