This book was kinda slow to start but when it did... oof.. it's terrifying. It makes you think, what if this were to happen? And just the thought of a creature being near you, in the same room as you, gives me chills. There were scenes in the book that just gave me straight chills and goosebumps all over my arms. I kept pausing, shaking myself because it's creeping me out, making me scared to have my eyes open... I would definitely recommend this book!!
