Too much backstory that is completely unnecessary and the dialogue is dull and sometimes awkward. The ending was more interesting than the beginning and it took forever to get to the good part.

Lisa never disappoints! Her writing style, the characters, and how twisted one family’s life completely changed just by being nice. Sometimes the Devil can be on your doorstep and you’ll never know.
