Awal-awalnya buku ini nggak kerasa seperti buku horror karena tokoh-tokohnya malah suka saling bercanda dan dialog-dialognya witty. Di tengah-tengah, keseramannya benar-benar spooky dan menegangkan, seru. Di akhir tahu-tahu hatiku luluh lantak, selama sesaat aku bisa membayangkan perasaan kesepian dan keterasingan Eleanor, perasaannya tertolak/terusir oleh semua orang, tak benar-benar punya tempat tujuan padahal ia mendambakan tempat di mana ia merasa diterima. Kerapuhan ini yang akhirnya membuat Hill House berhasil mengusainya. Idk I just feel it's sad....

Ten times better than the TV show. So much more insight into the house itself and what it’s like to live there, was psychologically spooky on so many levels.

i really liked this book; however, i’m not sure if i would have liked it as much had i not already been a fan of the netflix original. the scary parts of the book weren’t that scary, but the deteriorating mental states caused by the supernatural aspects of hill house were very intriguing and created a really interesting ending!

Amazing
A perfect book to read to start off Fall right. The creeping dread and questions of what's real and what's true and what is *actually* happening make this book stick with you even after it's done.
