The Graveyard Apartment
by Mariko Koike
I liked this book. It's a solid haunted house type horror novel. It's very slow, and didn't quite build enough tension or horror for me, but I enjoyed seeing the family slowly unravel as the days go by. Koike nailed the "I'm trapped in a living situation I don't want to be in, and here's how it's affecting our family dynamincs" really well.
I also question some of the translation choices. Some of the dialogue and the description is stilted or just awkward (some of the word choices just weren't natural for every day conversation at all). I would be interested to know how the dialogue is in the original.
Overall, I would recommend if you're into j-horror, but if you're looking for a more Western horror you're probably not going to like this.
