Read this on recommendation of Sara and Cariad’s Weirdos Book Club and found it intriguing. It’s unlike any other ‘ghost’ book I’ve read and the narrator had a really interesting perspective to view this story from. It was slow paced but easy to read and filled with really relatable sensory language as she infiltrated the minds and senses of the other characters. I also found the jumping between her memories, the memories of the other characters and the present really enjoyable as a narrative ride. Would recommend as a good holiday book.
