Woooooow. I'm not even sure what to say about this book! What a rollercoaster. When I first read about the book i was really intrigued about the story line and it did not disappoint!!
This was DARK! And I mean DAAAAARK!! Which is why I bloody enjoyed it so much (again, I promise you I am sane).
I did quite love the relationship between Dawn and Leslie and that ending!?? Why?! I was so upset 😭😭
This book really shows that sometimes, the bad people can win one way or another and how those with money and popularity can have a hold on those without such privileges and not suffer any consequences.
I loved the horror side of it as well. The haunted Abbey was an amazing concept and the ending really reiterated that! I can't wait to read the Sequel! I need to find out the secrets of that family!!!!
I loved this book! 100% would recommend!! But please, this is a very dark book so do check the trigger warnings below!
