Loved it. Loved the set up, loved the multiple POVs, loved the ending. This is a disturbing thriller, but also (unfortunately) incredibly believable.
First person POV, an unpleasant mix of choppy and run on sentences. 21 pages in, and there are so many errors that I'm questioning if there was an editor. I will not be reading this author's work again.
Wow!!! So much to unpack in this book! 1st of all what the heck up with Jocelyn How ever you spell her name! How dare you bring your child Tormentor In your house! And not see your OWN child struggle with it! Like you was paying Sarah so much attention you couldn't see your child sparing more and more!
I was so sad to see that the other child didn't make It out! I was so pissed that Sarah did that! I know she was brainwashed and everything but damn you didn't have to push the button and burn down the house ugh! The book was really sad read!
I'm so glad that Ella was like nope! I'm not going down without a fight! And proved to Sarah over amd over she had the wrong Freaking one! Thank goodness for her fighting power!
Berry is easily becoming one of my favorite authors her books make you sit and think about what you have read after all you have closed the book! Makes you just sit and stare off and collect yourself
