I would have given this book four stars if not for the ending. When I bought the book I didn't open it so I didn't realize the whole book basically reads like evidence. I was pleasantly surprised by that. Halfway through the book I couldn't put it down. It was all going great. Until the ending. Which basically left me with zero answers. I don't want to give it one star because I was loving the book...but i hate crap, bullshit endings. So...the book gets three stars...the ending gets one. LOL.
This was a buddy read and it was FANTASTIC!!!!!!!! Full rtc!!!!!!!!!
Ok well first off this was not what I expected at all! I liked the first half better than the second half of the book though. It got really scary! I don't know if I believe the narrator or not. Maybe Carly/Kaitlyn was possessed, maybe they were just mentally ill. I honestly don't know what to believe. I think I like the book better if she was just crazy. I think it gives a more “psychological horror” vibe rather than “paranormal horror” which I definitely am a bigger fan of. However I really don't know what I believe! Overall it was an alright book. A little scary for my usual taste, I still read it pretty quickly though. I thought the dossier style was fun. It reminded me of Illuminae. I'd say probably a 3.75 stars on this one. The second half of the book just got a little too scary for me to rate it higher. (I didn't know it'd be that scary going in)
