THIS BOOK HAS SPOILERS....ALSO IT WAS A STUPID BOOK
This ghost story promised me a spooky tale about a woman that is inherited a house (such an original idea in a ghost story) and has nowhere else to go because she lost her home once her mother died (wasn't this Eleanor Vance story from The Haunting of Hill House from Shirley Jackson?), Okay continuing on she moves to the creepy house on the hill in the woods. I'll never understand the story that tells of someone moving to a house they have never seen before. She was willed this house but was never explained anything from the person that gave it to her. So I guess the lawyer who gave it to her didn't exist because she never remembers back to that time. Ummm okay..... So Eleanor... I mean Addy moves into this house sight unseen and looks around downstairs. Then as night settles in and she has already started a fire, made food, fed the cat, changed her clothes, and had tea she decides to check what's upstairs. Who moves into a house and doesn't look around upstairs too!!!??
Some weird shit happens........ Ohhhh
Some women come over and look around the house. Suddenly Addy is calling them her friends throughout the book as though they have known one another since birth. YOU JUST MET THEM ONE TIME!
My most annoying thing about this book was how time just slipped away. One minute she would be awake at 6am-7pm and she would do a few things and she was beating the sun so it wasn't night. The sun was always setting as soon as she woke up. For some stupid reason, she is always going to the rooms without electricity at nighttime.
She talks about how she isn't going to be one of those dumb horror movie girls that goes after the sound but she does it so many times all in the next chapter after she said she wouldn't.
Another ridiculous thing is that the fuse box is on the outside of the house. THE OUTSIDE OF THE HOUSE! How insane is that? I have never lived or seen a house that would have one on the outside of the house. That seems so dangerous if someone was trying to get into your house.
