"One of my favorite books if not my current favorite. It kept me hooked wondering how it was gonna end."
Shyla
"Had a really amazing plot, kept me engrossed until the very end. But then it ended suddenly after revealing something that created more questions. A sudden, unsatisfying ending that feels unfinished."
Amanda Keith
"The Creeping by Alexandra Sirowy and Dark Insides by Jeyn Roberts."
Bailey Powell
"This thriller is explores with grappling with our mortality. And that sometimes we give up more than we bargain for in pursuit of our own desires. I read this when I was young and I haven’t forgotten it since. It’s a beautiful book and I was hooked on every word. Totally recommend "
