This was such a wild ride. David is the forgotten kid in his family. All his life he has been overlooked and shunned by everyone except his older brother, James, and father. While staying at the same summer cottage they rent every year, they learn of a new add on the owner built over winter and David soon finds out that it's a portal to some kind of Hell. Trying to guard the family that so easily forgets him, it's his job to unravel the mystery of how to burn the bridge between their world for good.

I was invested in David! I was rooting for him the entire time. I was thoroughly creeped out and on the edge of my seat waiting for enough clues to be revealed to figure out what David had gotten himself into๐ซ I loved the journal entries from Everett! They were half a look into what he went through trying to save our world and burn that bridge himself, and half a look into his own personal life and everything that went on with the original owners of the cottage.

The epilogue set up the next book perfectly. I cannot wait to dive into it and finally get some answers! I happen to also be obsessed with the art in this book. It takes the scenes to a whole new level and the bonus novella is just ๐ค๐ป๐ค๐ป
