Major TW for SA and SH! 
I adored the writing style this author used, it felt easy to read while also being captivating. That being said there was some underlying fat phobia that I was not at all a fan of. The characters were fleshed out and didn’t feel one sided at all. It is a slow start but the suspense and overall creepy/eery vibe to the book kept me reading. Most of the twists didn’t really feel shocking, but there was one twist I didn’t guess. Despite the twists not feeling shocking I think the ending was satisfying and tied everything up nicely.
