My Rating
This adult horror novel will have you on the edge of your seat. Fourteen people enter an abandoned amusement park for a cash prize, but the competition is way more sinister than they expect. This book is a total page-turner!
The story completely engrossed me from the first chapter. I found the concept of a horror story in an amusement park to be very creepy. I expected this book to be full of twists and turns, but although it wasn’t, it was still very gripping and suspenseful.
My only problem with the book was its multiple perspectives and storytelling style. Instead of receiving chapters from individual characters’ perspectives, we gain insight into multiple characters’ mindsets in a single chapter. I thought this formatting was confusing and made it difficult to follow the characters’ thoughts.
“Terror is almost a comfort at this point, a familiar friend.”
Although I found it hard to keep up with so many characters, I loved the writing. Kiersten White is a master storyteller; you won’t want to put her books down. What I really like is that, while it’s not a nightmare-inducing read, it’s still a chilling story you won’t forget.
I also really liked the characters and was rooting for them. I almost cried a few times—I was so scared for them! Admittedly, I guessed the ending early on, and I was mostly right! But a few things still surprised me. I really liked how it ended.
Overall, it was a great read! This horror book’s so gripping, you’ll probably read it in a day or two. For those who enjoy a bit of a thrill, this makes for a fantastic summer read with just the right amount of creepiness to keep you engaged.
