This book was another theme read for the month of October. I’ve heard so many positive things about it, so I wanted to check it out. I really liked it.

I really enjoyed this book and the blend of pictures that enhanced the visual aspects of my imagination. This pictures are really great especially when you are trying to get the feel of a character.

The reveals were unimpressive and the characters were bland. Despite the cover and the photographs, there is no horror, creep, or fear to this book. It reminded of my first chapte ...more
