Technically this was my first horror novel and Carissa Orlando did not disappoint!! This was a surreal experience. It was hard to put down this book cause all I kept thinking was what's going to happen now!!.

The genre is horror, dark comedy, mystery-thriller, psychological thriller (which is my favorite genre), there's domestic/familial element all rolled into one. So, I was laughing and in the next second I'd be scared.

Also, the book isn't just about the hauntings of the house and its past, but we get so much more. 

There are good twists and turns and I love the way the book is written. The past and the present, ughhhh!!! If i could give this book 6 out of 5 stars, I would.

I'm excited to read more from this author not only because this book was magnificient but also because she's a clinical psychologist which is what I'm studying to become.
