I couldn’t wait to read this book, I picked it for the challenge Can you read a series in a Month? I was eager to step into this world and be totally creeped out. I have to say the pictures in the book add a lot to the creepiness and I loved how this keeps you guessing.
At first I wasn’t sure about the characters. I enjoyed reading in Dan’s POV and I actually enjoyed Abby, however Jordan got on my nerves a bit more than I would have liked. I really believed as much as all three characters were suppose to be friends they spend a lot more time fighting because they just liked to keep things to themselves and had serious trust issues. I did like the character development but as some points I felt the story was a little disconnected. It didn’t flow like I had hoped it would and it got sort of choppy that by the end I was sort of confused how it all happened. I am not saying I didn’t like the book because I really, really did. Since this is the series I picked I am eager to find out what happens to the characters and the end gave me chills. I also plan to read the novellas at some point maybe it will fill in the parts I that were choppy.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book, Jordan got better in the end and the friends seemed more connected just took a bit of time to get there. I totally recommend if you are looking for something creepy to make you sleep with the lights on. Can’t wait to read the next one.

Thanks for stopping by to check out my review.
Have a great day and Happy Reading!
I’ve recommended this book to countless teens when they were looking for something creepy, Michelle, but I’ve yet to read it. LOL I did pick it up for my younger daughter but she lost it before she finished. I think I’ll have to grab it again just so I can read it! 😀
The cover creeps me out do bad, and add to that there’s pictures in It?! No thanks lol! You know I wouldn’t be able to sleep. I’m glad you enoyed it, even if it was a little disconnected 🙂
That cover is terrifying! Despite the fact that they have trust issues (seriously people – communicate!) I do love the sound of this overall. I’m adding to my TBR.
This series is on my wishlist. 🙂
