This was a fun book, I really liked all the characters and where the store ended up. However, I couldn't help but get distracted and ended up walking away to read other things once or twice. I don't completely understand why but I didn't get as sucked into the story as I expected.

Completely fantastic, the reveal toward the end is perfectly balanced between unpredictable and reasonably painless considering the circumstances, the characters are wonderful, keeps a fantastically unsettling vibe throughout, can’t imagine a better novel

DID NOT FINISH: 17%

I think I am maybe just not a Gothic horror type of person. I’ve been reading a lot of horror recently and this came up as a similar read suggestion, but it’s not the same kind of horror I’m looking for.

I knew I was tired when I started this because somehow I completely skipped over the telling description (The Haunting of Bly Manor meets House of Salt and Sorrows) and was already few chapters in when I thought, 'hmmm, this might be queer.'
Loveable characters: Yes
