Essentially Final Destination but with kids! I find it a bit illogical that all these very unfortunate events would befall a group of 15 people so NONE of them survived in a matter of like, a 10-hour timespan…..that being said, all the deaths themselves, individually, were things I could see happening in this situation.
I can’t believe people leaving reviews are saying the deaths are “boring” 😭 After reading, I can understand where they’re coming from but….the fact that they’re dying is enough! 💀Yes, it’s descriptive enough and yes, it’s horrible enough!
I obviously read this out of morbid curiosity and I can’t say I enjoyed it, but it had its moments.
I agree with many other reviews that say some of the 6-year-old thoughts don’t seem like they’re that of a 6-year-old….especially Enzo 👀 And the pov changes mid sentence and mid paragraph were wild! Had me doubling back and figuring out how to switch my brain gears! That was an odd choice from the author for sure.
I did like some of the writing other than that. I liked the way things were described and the super creepy story the teacher told them in the first part! That was almost sadder than the main plot tbh 🥲 but the majority was difficult for me to follow easily and took me out of the creep!
The ending was as satisfying as it gets for me, but also illogical…I’ll keep this spoiler-free so I wont say why, but that also kind of took me out of it bc I was like 🤔🤔🤔
Recommended to those who will read things that everyone says not to bc it’s too gross/disturbing and who like a quick read!

This is gruesome. Some of it is hard to digest. But it was wonderful.
