I'm not really sure what I think of this book. The writing is addictive and you want to keep reading, but even though people say that there were so many shocking/surprising things happening - there weren't. Everything happening is predictable. I enjoyed the writing style and I thought some scenes were actually creepy and written well. However, the characters are all horrible, none of them is even a little bit likeable (I mean besides Crew). I hate all of the characters, they are all bad people and are also written poorly, like at least give them a tiny bit personality?
But if you can accept a book with horrible characters for what it is, the story is interesting until you reach the end, where it just feels too predictable and a lot of stuff just not making sense.
