""You should ask yourself, Mr. Jack Sparks, what the Devil thinks of you."<br/><br/>Holy hell, I loved this book. I buddy read this one with my friend Mindi, and we both adored it. This one easily made its way onto my favorite reads of the year list. <br/><br/>I'm not going to do an extensive review on this one because you really don't need to know more than what the synopsis tells you & I don't want to ruin anything. This book has everything - it's funny, it's creepy, and the story was completely captivating for me. I loved the characters, the story, everything. READ IT NOW."
"This book.. holy cow! I’m going to say right here, i absolutely recommend this book. I feel like even describing the way I feel, without any description of the plot, is a spoiler. Read the book. Read the book all the way! And come back when you’re finished, and read the rest of this review. ……………STOP READING HERE…………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..I’m seriously. Stop reading. GO!! Go read the book!!!! I went into it knowing very little, and was a little irritated that things weren’t happening the way I had anticipated, but at the end, it was like every piece slammed into place of a puzzle I didn’t know I was doing. Every. Single. Feeling. I. Had…was curated by the author. I’ve never been in so manipulated or bamboozled in all my life and I’m so happy about it. It was absolutely worth every second. "

"I am Jack's Unravelling Psyche.
Our protagonist is a narcissist, an unreliable narrator, and... I'm sorry... He's just so ******* cool. Hate Jack for being Jack and hate yourself for loving him, but strap yourself in for a harrowing ride through a terrifying warped reality. I was counting pages toward the end because I did NOT want it to be over. Addictively told and RE-told, snapping in the puzzle pieces you didn't even know we're missing. Can't recommended it highly enough, can't wait to read it again. #horror #mindfuck #psychologicalhorror #supernatural #masterpiece #wtf "
"It's the best book for a weekend read...I finished it in a day...it's fantastic!! Do yourself a favor Skip the reviews and the summaries and just read now. You won't regret it "
