I'l start by saying how captivating the cover of this
book is. It is what drew me in and the blurb sealed the
deal. A creepy gothic literary about twin girls struggling
With the grief of losing their mother and suddenly start
talking about a strange man in their room. A man who
later becomes their new imaginary friend called 'Black
Mamba.' sounds great! But, unfortunately, it just didn't hit
the mark for me. The story became slow and repetitive
and while I agree that the different variations of grief
were written well for each character, I didn't find myself
caring about any of them enough to keep me invested
It wasn't unnerving or as scary as anticipated and
ultimately I DNF this one.
