“The writing was amazing and I really loved the way it was told. There was some beautiful prose and some unsettling imagery. At first, I was a bit confused about which character we were focusing on but it didn’t take long for me to understand and I liked getting the story from both womens perspectives. It was fast moving and definitely readable in one sitting because of its length. As much as I enjoy short and weird books, I do think this one could have been longer. There were a few things I wanted more of or explained further. The plot was both straightforward and yet not. It was kind of a mystery, a haunted house, witches and horror all mixed together. I actually really loved the mystery part surrounding the young boy and also the families history. It was depressing and I enjoyed it’s social commentary on wealth/class. There definitely could have been more horror for me but it did have unsettling, strange moments. Overall, there were a lot of things I loved but overall it just didn’t wow me like I wanted it too.”Liss
