What I Loved: I wouldn't say I loved it, but I did like Claire and Serena's stories, not in a weird way though. It was interesting what happened to each of them and how the author tied wove them together. Even though I could already figure out what the mystery was behind Serena's death, it was interesting seeing it all play out, despite the mess I had to read through to get to the meat of the story. 
 Left Me Wanting More: I didn't care for any of the characters. Claire was okay, but since she was dealing with her own problems and having all that crazy stuff happen to her, I couldn't really connect with her. The teens of Peculiar were just that, peculiar. They would just do and say the most inane and random things. When describing this book, I'd say everything was so random and choppy. The book pretty much dragged on and on with nonsensical and frivolous stuff that I could've done without. 
 Final Verdict: I was hoping for a bit more gore and horror, but I got more annoying characters and random moments. I've read quite a few books that are written along the same lines and I never end up liking them and I should've figured this would be that way. Maybe I'm just not a "psychological thriller" fan.
