This book is slow and creeping. I got halfway through and almost didn’t finish reading it. I’m glad I did though, it really picks up in the last third.

I loved the writing - which is why I stuck through it. Sometimes the descriptions felt long-winded but it really painted a picture of the environment. Noemi was a great character and I loved uncovering the mysteries of this strange and twisted family/house with her.
