This was a fun read. It was pretty dark but the creature on the middle of the woods and trying to survive the woods was an interesting concept and twist on the traditional true crime thriller. I liked the main character and was excited to see her journey. I felt like this book rushed the ending though and left some important parts of the characters arc out. Like what happened to her sister??
