I rate this book a 3.5. It was a quick read. Read it in under 3 hours. I saw SOO many great reviews saying it was jaw dropping and in my opinion It was kind of vanilla. I am not a fan of horror/thriller to begin with as I'm easily spooked but this wouldn't scare a 10 year old. The redeeming qualities is the psychological facts through out the book, but overall I feel like the author had a great base but didn't nail it completely in my opinion. I recommend making a decision for yourself but based off other reviews this author may have better books to try.
