Summary from GoodReads
It's Ella's senior year of high school and she and her best friend Linds plan to make it the best year ever. At Brock Cochran's end of summer pool party, the girls vow to have as much fun as possible before they head off to different colleges next fall. But when Ella is mysteriously attacked on her way home from the party, everything changes. Ella's carefree senior year plans disintegrate as she finds herself at the center of an attempted murder investigation.
Ella tries to move on, but her attacker isn't done yet. He shows himself in the form of horrifying signs and symbols: a clown mask strewn on her bed, a dead bird in her backpack, a shadow moving past her window in the night. And as the weeks pass, it turns out that Ella isn't the only one being tormented.
With the help of an old flame, Jensen Carver, and her friends and family, Ella tries to attain some sense of normalcy, but she can't seem to shake the feeling that there's a dark pattern hidden in the killer's every move. Suddenly, even those in her innermost circle seem suspicious. In her seemingly safe West Virginia town, Ella starts to wonder who she can trust.

REVIEW
I received an e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.
I was hesitant to read this book. You may think that it's crazy tolet a book by Jennifer Armentrout slip from my hands but, to be honest I never was a fan of thrillers. Especially "It" by Stephen King. So, despite being afraid, I really enjoyed this book.
There's enough mystery to last a lifetime and a very haunting setting. Ella and Jensen both tried to find out who was behind everything, but it was Ella, who got the most character growing in this book.
There is a clown involved, which was very creepy and I never, EVER want to see a clown mask again. Despite everything, the book was a solid five-stars for me, but I would be terrified if Jennifer Armentrout ever decided to turn into thrillers.
