This book is dark, and twisty, and perfectly horrifying. I had started to put the pieces together before the end, so the reveal wasn't as shocking as big reveals typically are for me. In Her Skin is a great book that I would recommend to anyone who wants to feel like they don't know which character to root for, or what exactly is going on between the lines. My only complaint is that there isn't more after the ending (and yes I know that's vague but I don't want to hide this review because of spoilers). As soon as I finished this book, I read like three middle grade books in a row because I knew they wouldn't be this dark, so just fyi- it's VERY DARK.
