I struggled to get through it, but the last few chapters after the ending twist had me hooked. Wouldn’t reread even though the foreshadowing potential is intriguing.

Jeetje mineetje wat een boek. Ik heb dit boek verslonden. Ik vond dit in het begin een vreemd boek, maar na het lezen van het einde valt alles op zijn plek. Wat een einde zeg, ik zag dit niet aankomen maar het is zo logisch. Alle details kloppen! De gedichten in het boek maken het in mijn mening af, het geeft een luguber tintje aan het boek. Ik heb hem gelezen in April, maar ik raad aan om hem rond Halloween te lezen, dan kom je helemaal in de spooky vibes. Ik ga zeker meer van deze auteur lezen en dit boek is op mijn toplijst komen te staan!
