"I loved what an unusual twist this was on a ghost story. Terrifying and creepy but with the most beautiful story in-between. 4 stars."

"My eyes devoured this book. The constant mystery made it nearly impossible to stop reading. Tears also escaped my eyes. "

"Loved the amount of detail written into this, made it so I was captured and could barely put the book down! I finished it within 3 days and did not see the ending coming but I loved how it ended, definitely cried a tear or two."

"I almost DNF'd this book and I don't say that lightly. I love Darcy Coates but this book seemed so long and drawn out. It started off strong with the first few chapters but then it went south. I felt like she over explained every single thing that went on in this woman's life to the point I was ready to quit. BUT since it was my first book of 2024 I just couldn't make it a DNF. So I powered through and finally got to the end. I will have to say that the ending was okay but I could have saved my time for one of her other books. I do not recommend this book."

"Another brilliant book by Darcy Coates. I loved this one too. This was different, and it took a bit for me to figure things out as I was a bit lost at first for the first chapter or two, but once I knew what was happening, I was enthralled and couldn't stop reading until the end. I wanted to know what was going on and everything. The answers to the questions were not quite what I was expecting, and it surprised me that I didn't figure it out myself. I love gothic supernatural mystery/thrillers like this and Darcy Coates writes amazingly well with her stories in this genre."

"One of my favorite Darcy Coates books. I like my feel good with slight darkness. It’s cozy but chilly. "
