For a short novel of 272 pages, it sure took me a while to read it. I probably expected a lot more than what I got being that there were a number of stellar reviews. But, when it comes to certain genres, I am a lot more critical than most.
I didn't find anything creepy or scary about the novel, and the pacing for me was just too slow for my tastes. Somehow, I expected a more adrenaline filled narrative and at best, I got a lukewarm reception. The novel literally put me to sleep.
I really didn't connect with any of the characters. Though I did appreciate the dual points of view. So, by 47%, I was done for the day. I may pick it up again later, but as of right now, it's a one star DNF. Too bad because I did use my points to claim the book from Penguin Teen through the Bookish First Raffle.
The review herein is completely my own and contains my honest thoughts and opinions.
