Ursula Vernon does mundane-to-utterly-terrifying so brilliantly. . Excellent characters, a story that starts off slow, with little moments of dread, and then launches itself into full-blown terror. I absolutely loved it.

I simply could not put this book down. I read the back 1/2 in a single sitting. Very little I can say except that it was engrossing, expertly woven, and extremely fun to read.
