I was interested for the Japanese folklore being 1/4 Japanese and was hoping this would also be really spooky. I plan on looking more into the folklore, I really enjoyed this aspect. Definitely not spooky, at least to me, and more mysterious. I liked the main POV being the spirit and her narrating others thoughts/feelings. For a YA horror, I was surprised at some of the descriptions, but still wasn’t scary.
