ekcd_'s review against another edition

I was reading it for a book club and I didn’t finish it in time, and then after listening to the book club I didn’t feel the need to read the ending!

This is not something I would normally pick up. I had to read it for school. This book was pretty creepy. I don’t know. It wasn’t bad but it wasn’t great. Maybe it just wasn’t my kind of book?
