dark emotional relaxing tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

Wow, this book was nothing like what I was expecting. I agree with those that say going into this as blind as possible is best. I knew very little outside of the synopsis and that there was a cat that was fun to read their perspective of. 

It feels wrong to call this a horror book. Ted didn't do anything wrong, having DID made his life better and worse. Giving him humanity after explaining what happened to the missing girl and other children made me want to go back and reread the whole book to see the things I bet I missed.
