Overall it was slow but enjoyable. When things start coming together with the Leech, Wolf, Witch, and Apparition all journeying towards a mysterious house, it really picks up and captured me.
There was one thing tho that I noticedI noticed the vampire was noted as being centuries old but as the story progressed his past revealed that he had to have been changed in somewhat modern times, which kind of threw me off but it was excellent all the same.
I also really liked that the house was designed like an anglerfish that teased visitors in with their ideal paradises, but also served as a place for reflection of one's self and inner demons, with the chance to find peace/solace/closure while facing the reality of themselves. It definitely opened a door for personal introspection after reading. What would my room look like? What of my darkness would I face, and am I redeemable?
Lastly, I totally knew the wolf would get outta there since JM is low-key a werewolf himself.
