Okay so I throughly enjoyed this show! Super eerie slow burn and amazing acting from all characters especially the main girl (both adult and child actors) however some things in the end proved to be pointless, like Jacob's tattoo?
It seemed he was the one trying to get his friends and girlfriend involved with this cult, constantly reading from the book and then brings them to the island.
But then when he spoke to Ida in her house on the day of graduation he said "what happened out there?" And had been mad at her ever since the island. When it seemed he had initiated the whole thing... or maybe he just didn't expect it to go so far. Not sure. But where did he get the book from and what was the story with the tattoo?
In the end Astrid had to sacrifice herself and reunite with her sister to "free the others" and it was an unexpected and strange ending to say the least. (After so much build up to a grand finale)
We never got to know the mother's involvement with the cult or how the deal came about.
Anyway, very good up until the very last episode. Would have preferred a different ending. Bit disappointing.
