just imagine a meme where the person is saying "mind blown" with the most gobsmacked wtf is even going on expression on their face and that's me at the end of this book
I just .... I mean. I get it, I see where you're going with this, but also, I mean, really? That's what you're going to do?
Lots of twisty twists and even when you think you know exactly where it's going, you really don't (although you might for the most part but believe me you don't fully) (and it's so worth it)
super atmospheric, super creepy, super near-impossible to put down, super here for this
