My Review: NO SPOILERS

Honestly, this book is NOT what I expected.

I picked this one up after seeing it trending in almost every horror book recommended list I could find and decided to give it a shot. I ended up enjoying this SO MUCH.

Although I didn't find it scary, there were so many elements I liked. The story was incredibly intriguing, and I easily found myself rooting for Chet. If your man doesn't try and escape the afterlife for you, leave him!

Overall, it is amazing, with plenty of dark themes, excitement, hope, and grief
