This book was WILD. So many moments had my jaw dropping & gasping. However, it was a disturbing read. I wasn’t a huge fan of the ending. I think if the ending were a bit different, I would’ve rated higher, but due to the disturbing nature of the book & the not-so-great ending, I could only give 3 stars.
