This book had two distinct timelines woven throughout the narrative. The story opens on the future timeline which is what threw me off, and halfway through the book they finally resolve into a single path.
Overall, I get why the dual timelines were done. Knowing the story it does make more sense, but here’s why it didn’t work for me.
The story felt jilted doing it this way. One moment I’d be deep in creepfest with the characters trying to figure out why on a lot of unanswered questions, then the narrative would kick me into the future, where the character is still alive, and she’d be explaining what happened instead of readers living the terror.
