It was a good read. Solid mild of the road as far as ghost stories go. Good writing and enjoyable.

This book reminded me why I prefer full-length books to novellas. It had a great setup but I wanted more and the shorter length made the story feel rushed and incomplete.

Nice short little ghost story, but not the best representation of Simone St James as an author.

I love this author and I'm always excited for anything she puts out. So I don't even need to know what a book is about if her name is on it. However, I wasn't super wowed by this one. Maybe it's because it was so short? It just didn't feel like a complete story to me. Easy enough to knock out in an afternoon, but too rushed and without the details that would have really drawn me in. I won't say I didn't enjoy it at all, but I just didn't feel like this concept was very compelling. I would have liked a little more length to lend to the atmosphere. Overall not terrible, but also not incredible.
