This was a great and quick horror novella. I enjoyed the mix between real life and the paranormal, and how things start off as small and then desend into chaos.
There's a creepy atmosphere throughout this story and the author keeps it up right until the final page.
This is a solid horror story that's full of creepiness and madness.

Amanda has begun acting oddly and has been hearing a tapping that seems to follow her throughout the home she shares with her husband. She begins to have moments she cannot account for and discovers blood on her hands and her clothes. As her life slowly begins to implode, she seeks help only to find out it may be too late.

This was an interesting take on possession as it is told through the eyes of the possibly possessed. I expected to be a little more spooked than I was as some people have called it the creepiest book they've ever read. The main character was annoying and naïve at the same time. It was interesting to see how her problem completely changed her life. I really wish this would have been a better read.
