Thanks to netgalley for a free copy of this ebook in exchange for a review.
The afterword definitely changed my perspective on this read. It was a very simple read with themes of postpartum, mental health, and a bit of religion. I enjoyed the alternating chapter perspectives, I think this really added much more suspense to the read.
The only thing for me is that I suspected more horror. The horror DID come in but only about 80% through the book. There were teasers here and there from the beginning, which were terrifying, and I really wanted more. 
I will say, about 80% through, the horror really amped up and I was loving it!
Very enticing premise overall and I'd recommend to anyone looking for a simple horror story.
