Way too graphic and gory for me... the plot/story didn't make up for the gore I had to endure to get to the end.

I literally couldn’t put this book down. It moved so quickly and the tension was so believable. Even though it was fast paced, the characters were well developed, especially Darby and Ashley. I especially liked the use of multiple POVs as a character building tool for the protagonist. 
I need to see more of these characters, especially Darby! I’m not sure how a sequel would work based on the ending, but this was one of the best female MCs I’ve ever read.

This book was insanely tense from beginning to end with so much packed into it. About 25% of the way through I had no idea how I still had so much left to read because so much had already happened. So many heavy gut-punches.

The ending, when you think Darby is dead but then she isn't?? ONE LAST GUT PUNCH, Wow I had to re-read the last page because I was so caught off-guard

I’ve never read a book that was truly unputdownable, but this was exactly that. Such a great read! The characters in this book were so well done and the way he writes is griping. Highly recommend!
