Small Favors by Erin A. Craig
2.0

Oof, what a disappoinment. This was so slow, it took getting through 2/3 of the way in for stuff to actually happen and what happened was so poorly written. It wasn't until we were told the drawings of these awful, scary creatures that I felt spooked. And that was also the only time I was spooked. Not a single character (outside of Sadie and the mom) had any redeemable characteristics, they all sucked. The relationships felt forced. The ending? What was that? No solid answers to the bees? Mom and dad? This was just a huge letdown.
