lizziaha's review against another edition
3.5
My problem with this is the same as everyone else’s problem with it. It’s too short! I think it needed a bit more. The world was intriguing but we barely got to see any of it. I wanted more worldbuilding, more about the women of the river, more about how that changed society. I also think that the spookiness could’ve been heightened with a little more descriptive language.

I like the premise of this one a lot; a fake medium who when trapped overnight after a seance, is contacted by a real ghost. I really liked the 'bottle episode' style of this one. I felt stuck in the seminary with the lead and felt some moments of real fear when reading. I really enjoyed the use of silence and freezing as a reaction from the lead, who I was rooting for.
