5.0

Thoroughly enjoyed this book
Very cool premise with the main character accepting immediately that the house is haunted and just dealing with it.
But it got pretty dark too
The characters all had distinct personalities. And the book gets you because you slowly realise that the main character is an unreliable narrator

it gets to the point were you almost believe that she imagined it all and did it all herself.
