catacosmick 's review for:
The Staircase in the Woods
by Chuck Wendig
dark
mysterious
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Complicated
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
The intriguing concept of a house that shifts and great atmospheric tension is pretty much ruined by an over reliance on pop culture that will be irrelevant in 2 years, at most, and annoying characters (except for Owen) you don’t give a shit about.
