Nicely written and very atmospheric. I thought the narration was very interesting and well done, especially given that the MC cannot speak out loud. I also liked the use of the journal scraps throughout the book, and the art that was included. Not too scary; very reminiscent of Coraline, in my opinion. I enjoyed it but I wasn’t blown away; the stakes needed to be higher, or the world-building more intense, for my personal taste.
