- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
3.0
Definitely not for the faint of heart and if you want something more like a haunted house story and less like the tale of the terrible things people can do to each other, this might not be the book for you.
Moderate: Gaslighting, Child abuse, Murder, and Suicide
Minor: Violence
The book does discuss in detail a very lengthly period of gaslighting by parents to their child. It also mentions child abuse, murder, and suicide. There are also rumors about grooming a teenage girl.
