I’m kind of torn in two when it comes to this book. I was seriously disappointed by it but at the same time, I did really enjoy some parts. I think my disappointment stems from the fact that I’ve read over and over how scary this book is and I didn’t even find myself remotely scared. Sure some parts were pretty brutal and the actions of many characters were truly despicable but I just didn’t feel any fear when reading this. Nothing about this book made me want to sleep with the lights on at night and that’s what I love about reading horror, the adrenaline that the fright brings. The story was interesting though and I enjoyed how everything was so intertwined, Simmons really spun a tangled web and it kept me intrigued enough to see it through to the end. I did think the ending was great, and gave me tingles, I wish the whole book would have felt that way!
