Im going to start this review by saying daaaammmmnnnn i inhaled this book. This is the first book of the year i have started and finished in one sitting. I’m not seeing how this book doesn’t have all the hype. 
The writing style: ✅ the interview type of writing was so different. It truly felt like a different person wrote each “interview.”
The plot: ✅ what a great lil storyline, can’t say i’ve been expose to anything similar. 
Gory details: ✅ just the right amount of gory details sprinkled throughout. 
Literally, my only complaint about this book was needing more. There were a few holes that never got filled, my partner says “they want you to fill it in.” But i don’t want to fill  it in. I want to KNOW what happened (the 2 masked people, did Sam kill that girl, who was the 3rd body in the hotel, Alice’s story, etc).
