While some of the symbolism is a bit on the nose, I think that’s in the legacy of great haunted house novels!

I'm spooked down to my very bones, but this is a good book. Do yourself a favor and check out TWs first, tho.

This was.... not at all what I was expecting. Beautiful writing, absolutely terrifying setting and premise, and progressively spookier with every chapter. I loved the ending leaving a bit of uneasiness with you. I'd love to see this adapted into a film or Netflix series!
(.5 stars removed for the unnecessary baby cannibalism thing?)
