This book contained almost everything I enjoy in a book: creepy kids, paranormal being, potential way to resurrect a demon, a cult following, and a crime. Seriously, how could I ask for more??? Two friends, Maddie and Lana are 12 years old and have been friends forever. Recently, Lana wanted to play a different game. She has been seeing the figure of a man, and he talks to her. They will have to kill someone in order to make the man real and live the rest of their lives together. A new girl in town, Sage, could be the answer to their problem. This book goes back and forth between when the girls were 12 and now, when Maddie is getting out of juvenile detention. This book was seriously excellent and kept my attention. Fast paced with many dimensions to the story were key components in what made this book fabulous.

A brilliant fictionalization of true ‘Slender Man Stabbing’ in 2014. I was fully invested in the story from the first chapter and thought the narrator was a perfect fit for the story. The young characters are portrayed true to life, and the ending made my jaw drop! Loved it!

Social media and GR review to come…

At first I liked the narration, but with a bit of time I found the presentation weak and not very compelling. I was intrigued by the premise so I might try a physical book but I did not enjoy this audiobook enough to finish for a full review.

I requested this one because it might be an upcoming title I would like to review on my Youtube Channel. However, after reading the first several chapters I have determined that this book does not suit my tastes. So I decided to DNF this one.

I love true crime, when I saw this one I was so excited to get into it. Unfortunately, it failed to keep my attention and it was way too similar to the real life event it is based on and there's already a book regarding that. I would've liked some things to be better explained and more detailed. Some aspects were also very uncomfortable to read since they do follow real life minors and I feel like I couldn't get past that.
