An eerie and creepy thriller! I loved this twisted story. I also loved how things were tied together at the end of the book. It was easy to follow and quick to read (which I love). One thing I didn’t understand was the reasoning behind Hanna and Theo getting together? I don’t really think it served purpose to the plot. I felt hurt for Floyd at the end as well, and wished him and Laurel could have worked things out together. Even though I did understand why he did what he did. I predicted the plot as soon as Ellie mentioned her period though while in Noelle’s basement. So, the book seemed a little monotonous after that for me. Overall though, it was a great twisted thriller book that I really enjoyed! An interesting concept for a plot that they somehow made work with a good story!!
