This book... It's dark. It's morbid. It's gory.
It has this amazingly macabre mood through the entire story. The descriptive writing is complete perfection (some of the lines in the story really make you go...whoa!) and the details are on point (especially if you want that extra creepiness). That's why I'm so incredibly disappointed to give this book any less than five stars.
But, the story is so slow. And maybe that's because it jumps back and forth between what's going on in the present to what one of the sister's remembers in the past, it got a bit jarring and terribly repetitive! It got to a point where I was just waiting for the story to end. The way it unfolds is lackluster, I really craved more depth.
All in all, I didn't hate it, but I wouldn't read it again.
