Just sorta meh for me. Characters felt very flat. Their development, as well as the progression of the plot, also felt rushed and underdeveloped. There was some imagery that was creepy, but for the most part didn’t find this thrilling. The cryptid was so vague and when it was described it honestly sounded more silly than scary. There was good ideas in the book but overall didn’t feel well fleshed out
