4.0

This is 4 stars only because the ending didn't feel complete. I think it’s so the reader can make up their own ending but it was still such an abrupt end. This is my first Shirley Jackson and I’m hooked! It was funny, spooky, tense, and suspenseful. I loved this spoiled family and their crazy notion of what’s to come in the world!
