This really had me on the edge of my seat, and it's so courageous that someone thought to make a movie about a book where everyone is covering their eyes! Very creepy. I did wonder about some of the pregnancy-related facts though. Those bits seemed less plausible. Definitely extremely heckin gory though.

This book was amazing, I loved the interweaving timeline and the storytelling throughout the entire novel. Everything came to a head within the last 60 pages and I couldn't stop reading. A great thriller. Some scenes are a bit gory,

including a descriptive dog death, suicidal tendencies, violence, and dark themes.

Definitely recommend to horror fans!
