“Few people go near the things that frighten them.”

I'd like to thank Simon & Schuster for sending me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

I've also posted this review on Instagram and my blog.

This was a spooky middle grade read! Finch House has a great haunting atmosphere. The suspense gradually builds up, which keeps you on the edge of your seat. I also enjoyed learning more about the characters, especially Micah. Throughout the course of the book, we see Micah grow into her confidence. We also got some background on the other kids stuck at the house from the past. Speaking of the past, I liked the development of the history and the origins of Finch House. However, I was a bit confused with the magic system and would have liked more explanation about how the house worked. The ending left on a bit of a cliffhanger which added even more to the creepy undertones of the book. I recommend this to fans of Coraline!
