A good horror novel - a bit more brutal and gruesome than expected, but I moved through it quickly, pushed on my growing tension and uncertainty.

We wil go on 

I really didn't care for the story as a whole, maybe the writing itself didn't keep me interested but the more I think about the ending the better I think about the book. It makes sense imo.
