This book is a trip!! There's even a specific trope that I usually hate but it works here well.
I do agree with the Blair Witch reference for the style of storytelling but once you're in the woods it really feels very Silent Hill-esque in many ways! I can't wait to read the next book. I've seen that this is a series in a way that the investigators are the same in this and the Our Last Echoes.
And anyone thinking that YA Horror pulls punches in regards to horror or tragedy should read this!

I loved the format and the delivery of this book. It was scary and terrifying and mystifying in all the right ways. I'm such a huge fan of the mixed media style. It not only aided the story itself by providing different perspectives and snippets in such an order that allowed things to be revealed or hidden or vague depending on the author's intentions at any given time, but also kept my attention span constantly engaged and constantly entertained with something new. I was constantly faced with unreliable narrators/POV's and situational irony and it added a whole extra layer of entertainment to the already thrilling narrative.
My only real issue was that the end was a little more open-ended than I personally would've preferred, but this book was so much about the journey anyways that it almost didn't matter.
