The Tenth Girl

2 stars. It's a no from me dog. I had to start skimming and skipping chapters just to finish.

After the first 30% I understand why this book has such a low rating. After finishing it I also understand why the ending was so divisive. This book is overly wordy, boring even during “exciting” moments, and after getting through the ending seems to be kind of pointless. We start the book going in a particular direction. Haunted school, girls disappearing, mystery, horror. But at about 80% we take a hard left and everything you thought the book was about gets turned totally on it's head but not in a fun way. When the big reveal about the school comes into play I said to myself “Then what was even the point of everything we've been through so far?”.

Wouldn't recommend. I can't even say this is a good book to read during the Halloween season which is the whole reason I picked it up.
