“Ahhh I was so excited to finally get to this. It was a bit anti-climactic for me. But I did enjoy the story and the build up and the craziness of the characters. A bit of societal redemption at the end which is always sweet. But wasn’t as “scary” as I thought this might be. Just saw there is a film adaptation, maybe I’ll like that!”SuspensefulUnsatisfying plot
