It's a 2 and a half for the interesting setup and initial ambiguity that really does drag you into the story wondering whether there is a supernatural twist or not and what happened to end up with a teenage girl drenched in blood surrounded by bodies
but that ambiguity is never resolved and the ending isnt satisfying enough to make up for it

I have NEVER given a 1-star rating before, but I honestly feel this should have been a 0 star. It was so bad :( Like what happened? Full review below that might contain spoilers even though there is literally nothing to spoil? It was just SO awful.

maybe 1.5 stars? if i wasn’t listening to the audiobook, i probably would not have been able to finish this. it was just super boring and slow, i disliked the characters, and i hated the weird relationship between michael and marie. plus the ending was unbelievably unsatisfying
