That was a very creepy and freaky novel that kept me on edge! I think the pacing was done well and full of tension that kept me guessing what would happen next.

I think the reveal of the who the murderer was wasn't as surprising, but there were other twists in the novel I wasn't suspecting at all. I also liked the theme of father and son relationships throughout the novel.

Overall very enjoyable! It took a while for me to finish because I was traveling, but I would have definitely finished it much quicker.

I liked it. End wasn't what I expected but not bad overall.

I had high hopes for this because it sounded like it could be creepy. 

The first half was creeping me out, however the second half did go slightly downhill. It did still have tense parts but I thought the reveal was a bit anticlimactic and the ending wasn’t the best. 

I did enjoy the authors writing though so I will still read more by him.
