This was a bumpy ride and not sure I enjoyed it. It had some typical tropes (which doesn't have to necesarily be a bad thing) but they were all jumbled together. I think I was meant to be baffled by the twisf, but the paranormal aspect threw me off. Then, the final twist was resolved in like 15 pages. I went into this blind and wasn't expecting anything in particular, but it definitely wasn't this.
