melbel13 's review for:
The Woman in Black
by Susan Hill
3.5
Plot- 6/10
Characters- 6/10
Writing- 6/10
Feels- 3/10
Overall- 6/10 60% C
I don't know what I expected from this book. I read it on a whim because I wanted something short and 'spoopy'. I had heard mixed reviews from my friends who had read it in school a few years ago, so I wasn't sure how I would feel. After reading it, I can say that I quite enjoyed, but was still a bit underwhelmed. Since I first watched the movie when it came out in 2012, I stupidly expected it to be a little scary, which it wasn't. Not much happened, in terms of the overall plot, but I found the general story fairly interesting. I also loved the overall creepy atmosphere. I understand the underlining meaning of the story, and about the manifestation of fears (I think), but because of my previous expectations of the book, I ended up not enjoying it as much as I thought I would. I still found it interesting however, and I'm glad I finally read it.
