The Good House by Tananarive Due

5.0

This book is about a curse and various supernatural forces using Earthly agents trying to fulfill or block this curse. I had some issues with the pacing initially, but after maybe the first 10 -20% of the book, it picked up. I really liked how discoveries about why things happened were layered throughout the book, so I was still having realizations at the end of the novel. The characters were all very flawed and felt very real. I really liked the details around the baka and vodou. I don't know if I was scared by the book, but it was creepy, and I liked the historical discussions it included.
