I probably wouldn’t have finished this book if it wasn’t for a book club. It was way too gory and vulgar and needed so many content warnings I did not get before reading it. I could see why people enjoy this book but it just wasn’t for me and this was also the first thriller I have ever read. I ended up guessing the killer because none of the other options made sense to me, even though the real killer also didn’t seem plausible.

Overall, I enjoyed this thriller. The twists definitely kept me hooked until the very end. It’s not always well written- a bit cliché at times but if you look past that the story is good if not a little disturbing. A good October read for spooky season though!
