I liked the writing and the characters. Mallory’s challenging past and her growth from those experiences are so encouraging and make her lovable. Teddy is such a sweet boy. And the mysterious pictures that keep turning up around the house are so much fun. I kept turning page after page waiting to find another photo.
Maybe it was all of the hype around this one, but I was disappointed. I loved the concept. The added photos in the book were fantastic-creepy but added so much to the story! There was so much build up and so many twists and turns, but the ending fell flat for me. I was so excited to see where the story was going, and then there was the quick reveal and the end. That was it. Build, build, build….”The End.”
