This was creepy, horrifying, and absolutely worst nightmare situation. I loved it👏🏻 I was immediately sucked in and devoured every word. It is a YA so the characters were a little immature, but the story was top-freaking-notch. I was not expecting the twist at the end, and now I'm super excited for book 2! My jaw was on the floor. I knew something was sus, but not once did I see that shit coming😭 

I can't really say too much about this book without giving up details or taking away the goosebumps youll get from reading it. Oh, but I wish I could! I wanted to read this after seeing it was "Jumanji but Japanese-inspired folklore" and that hits the nail on the head. A game all these kids played thinking nothing of it, and 4 years later they're sucked back into a horrifying, deadly game of matching cards to try and bring back the best friend they thought was dead. Theres grief, healing, a huge reveal, heart break, and edge of your seat suspense. This was the perfect way to start off my October reads🖤
