This book focuses on a fictional woman's perceived post partum depression. It is difficult to read at times.sassyram's review against another edition

All that being said, the formatting of this book left a little to be desired. Megan's haunting is constantly interrupted by her own academic writing (which works) and flashback vignettes featuring Margaret and Michael (which doesn't work). The flashbacks seemed unnecessary. As a reader, I already knew about Michael and Margaret's characters through their haunting and through Megan's dissertation. I honestly didn't care that much about their pasts and would have preferred more focus on Megan and the way they influenced her. This was her story, not theirs.
