We've got cults. Weve got heartbreak. Weve got moody ass teenagers. We've got murder. We've got possession. We've got an almost 5 star book.
Ania did an amazing job capturing the world through the different perspectives of this book. Lucas, the brooding, troubled father who is lost in his attempt to resurrect himself in the eyes of his family. Vee, a tragic tween desperate for connection, and Audra - a textbook case of depression and isolation, urgently seeking validation and a family to call her own.
The characters were rich. The story telling was chilling. The ending was abrupt and left you wanting more. I loved this book.
