This is one that I got for Christmas off of my wishlist. It ended up there based off the awesome cover art, and I'm glad to own it. I'm happy to say that I'm equally pleased with the book's insides as I am with the cover.
This novel is a concise, complete mystery/thriller. It's not huge on action, but it gives you a blood-pounding feel of actual fear and panic. It's written very well, and I was interested throughout its entirety. One quote that honestly made me drop my jaw was, “Her fingertips kept hovering back up to her throat, drifting towards her arteries to check her pulse, an obsession she was sure she'd never shake.” I don't normally talk personal stuff in reviews, but this is one way my health anxiety manifests itself, I actually personally do this. So for me, this read as such a genuine feeling, one that I didn't know others felt or did; the true feeling of panic. So the protagonist and I got along just fine, I immediately felt akin to her.
I will say this is a very supernatural/paranormal mystery. Think of a ghost-like mystery. Parts of the ending made me think of the Fear Street Netflix trilogy. Hopefully that will narrow it down for you in terms of taste. For me, this was totally fine and even up my alley. I personally believe it was executed quite well. Absolutely worth your time to buy, read, and support.
