A review by bookedbymadeline
The Woman in Black by Susan Hill

mysterious sad tense medium-paced

4.5

This movie traumatized me so I thought “why not read the book” 😅

I loved the writing with its underlying tension and creepy vibes! I half expected it to be scarier but that could be because of my experience with the movie.
The book definitely creeps you out and gives you goosebumps 🫣

Although it took a little bit to get into the novel (about 50ish pages), by the second half I didn’t want to put it down while also cowering under a blanket. I love ghost stories/books about hauntings and this did not disappoint! Highly recommend for any other ghost/haunted story lovers, and it makes a perfect rainy autumn read 👻
