 My video review: https://youtu.be/nP-Z7Pi4bKg 
 I really don't know how I feel about this book. I was expecting something of a suspenseful mystery. This is not it. Total slasher novel which isn't bad, just not what I wanted going in to this. Violence, gore, and sex abound in very graphic details. The formatting and pace take some getting used to. Some parts there is nothing happening and then at other times everything happens at once. Sex scenes happening on one floor completely intertwined with violent deaths on another. This way of story telling really fuels an adrenaline rush and keeps the story exciting. The story is narrated from the perspective of someone watching via security camera as it all unfolds. I was intrigued as I tried to guess who was telling the story and why. 
 As for the characters, I only really cared about Tessa, Brain, and the narrator. The rest of the characters come off as stand ins that are just waiting to die. They were good as side characters, but I really wasn't too upset when they died. It was only towards the end when my favorites were on the line that I started really getting worried. Manderly is an interesting setting. I love the grandeur of the hotel and grounds. It sounds amazing, you know if everyone weren't being brutally murdered.
