The Girl from the Well by Rin Chupeco
3.0
I picked this book up on a whim because I was intrigued by the cute cover. But it definitely was not a cute book at all… I was so surprised to see it was a horror book! But I am really glad I have the cute cover vs. the creepy cover LOL, I feel like that one would’ve given me nightmares.
I’ve been trying to get more into horror, so once I found out this was a horror book, I was super excited. It was definitely creepy and atmospheric at times, and the characters were easy to like… but overall, I just didn’t find it too scary, and I’m not sure I was ever fully immersed in the story. Nothing really stood out to me other than the poetic writing (which was wonderful)… but I will definitely be reading the sequel!
