Honestly I'm super impressed with the complexity of such a short book. It was absolutely captivating and I found myself much sadder than I thought I'd be when it finished. Would 100% read this again in the future. Perfect mix of horror, teen angst/growth, complex decisions and human error. Loved the time skips as well, made the story flow naturally and kept the reader (myself) on the edge of my seat waiting to see what she did next.

Not necessarily what I was expecting going into it, especially given the tags here and the fact Stephen King's name is on the cover as a contributing author. It does sometimes get dark with mentions of suicide and physical/sexual assualt, but it's mostly just a fun, suspenseful coming of age/sci-fi short story that I easily finished in less than 12 hours.
