I really enjoyed this horror/mystery & thriller book. I went into it pretty blind and was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked it. I knew it was horror, but didn’t know there would be supernatural elements to it, which I loved. Give me a good ghost story any day! 

This book is perfect for winter or colder months. It’s very atmospheric with a cold, snowy setting. Perfect when you want to curl up with a blanket and a hot drink while you read. 

I enjoyed the setting of the story. We’re in a town, but some of the story takes place at a farmhouse a little outside of town, so it feels like an isolated area, which I really enjoy in my mystery & thriller books. It was spooky, eerie, and creepy, but not so scary that I couldn’t read this at night. It didn’t give me nightmares or anything. It is a little strange or weird, but in a good way. I’ve read weirder books.

There are past/present timelines, which got a bit muddled at times for me. I felt like there were a lot of characters to keep track of. I listened to the audiobook, and that may have been my challenge because, at times, it got a bit confusing. There are multiple POVs and jumping back and forth from the past to the present. Maybe this would’ve been a better experience if I had read the book instead of listening to the audio. 

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I preferred the past storyline more than the present storyline. It was a little jarring to constantly jump back and forth through the timelines. It disconnected me a bit from the book. 

But overall, I thought this was a very interesting and addictive story. It was creative and creepy, and I loved the feelings I got from listening to it. It was unsettling, but in the best way possible! This was my first book by this author, and I’m excited to read more by her. Highly recommend!!
