• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

Moody and contemplative, as a good ghost story should be.

The format is almost dream-like, which is onteresting to read and adds to the tension I think.

We lose the thread of the son somewhere in the middle, which I think ultimately makes this too loose of a story.
