3.5

I think this book had a bunch of potential, but ended up falling short at the end. I think the ending was pretty predictable. I also wish the more spooky aspects of seeing ghosts and stuff would have been in it more. I like the atmosphere of the ruined old house though. I also think that there wasn’t a clear enough motive for what happens at the end of the book.
Read from the Provo library.
