2.5

Audiobook: this was a 2.5 rounded down. The narration was good  but i felt the story was jumping around too much for me to follow (why was it always Chapter 1??). I was looking forward to a wintery gothic ghost story and it is a bit of that but the ending was disappointing and there were quite a few lose ends and challenging plot points that didn’t seem to make sense. I was hoping for something more along the lines of The Bear and the Nightingale. Also I think there could be triggers re: sexual assault.
