I'm only giving it a 3 because I enjoyed her writing style. I HATED being left without any answers. I'd really love to see a second book or even a trilogy come out of this. 😭

I found Christopher irritating. He was so blind when it came to Janie. This book was so frustrating. And what even was that ending? Where is the rest???

This might just be the most disturbing book I've ever read, or the most disturbed I've ever been and I've read a lot of disturbing books, but this just tops it in a very weird way. I just wanted to read a thriller... I'm gonna take a breather and read and watch some fluffy stuff, cause my last read was also very disturbing...
