It was AMAZING!!!! The ending was just brilliant! And I loved the writing style, the back and forth with the present and dad's book. I loved all of it.

And to my friend who gave me this book, you have great taste! I genuinely really liked this book.

adventurous dark mysterious tense fast-paced

Liked the parallel story lines/ povs of Ewan and Maggie. a quickish read for its length. Lots of twists and dips in the last 150 pages kept me zooming through, but maybe a bit too many for my liking. Conclusion & ending wrapped it up nicely 

Straight spooked

dark mysterious tense
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I was actually scared, I had to read or watch something after it at night. 

Good writing, I think I felt the fear that Maggie felt in that house. 
I never truly try to guess thriller endings so some people might say they guessed it, but I sure didn’t.
