A Haunting on the Hill by Elizabeth Hand
dark
mysterious
slow-paced
2.5
Did The Haunting of Hill House need a continuation? No, but I personally read it as a book that happens to take place inside the infamous house so it didn't bother me all that much.
I don't feel like this was a bad book by any means, I just think I expected something I little different than what I got as someone who reads the haunted house sub-genre a fair amount.
I was, however, mad that the queer rep we get involves one of the bisexual character cheating on their partner with the other bi character in the story. I'm tired of bi characters being seen as the cheaters and shit.
