dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.5

This was on track to be a very rare 5* book except towards the end — I loved everything to do with the house/s, property, forest, cave but didn’t like how it extended to the friend's house. Where was he staying while she was in the hospital, and why didn’t he get worse? Still loved it though, and the descent into madness.
