Dear reader,
This is the first book out of eight in my autumn reads list and all I can think is just wow. I picked up this book in anticipation of a few shivers and frights and I sure as hell got some. I definitely recommend reading this book at night if you want the full experience of hearing footsteps outside of your door and when you open it you find no one there (really did happen to me). Pretty sure this book was the cause of all of that but I guess we’ll never know. A book hasn’t made my heart race in a very long time and this one did and I loved the ending. ❤️ 
Talk again soon,
FBC

P. S. I’m team letter.

This book was so messed up! Especially the end!!! Nonetheless, it was really good! Normally takes me over a week to finish 300+ page book but I finished this one in 12 hours. I couldn't put it down. Highly recommend!
