Wow. The creep and ick factor were so high in this book that I need to start another book right away to cleanse my brain’s palate. How else will I sleep tonight?

Possible 5 star?? Not sure how I feel about the victim blaming at the end? Regardless of what happened, Josie was still a victim, and Walter’s and Pat’s behavior cannot be glossed over??? Other than that, I would’ve given this 5 stars.
