The Cousins

The story had such intense moments early on, but the middle felt a bit calmer. I wonder if this was a deliberate choice to build suspense or just natural flow.

The reveals kept surprising me, but I’m curious whether the author planned all the twists from the start or if they evolved during writing.

I was torn between rooting for the cousins and questioning their choices — did anyone else feel certain characters' actions made sense or felt off?
