This one is a slow burn with spooky interludes that confused and creeped me out without ever being terrifying. I expected to be more afraid, honestly, but instead it played more with my mind. The writing wasn’t stunning but the descriptions of the house itself, the visuals it created for us as readers and the way the world shifted and tilted was really well down. The author kept me off kilter until the end and while I can’t rave about it, I’m satisfied.
