How do I even write a review about the absolute unit of a book that this is? It's phenomenal!
Haunted houses and haunted people, a lot of philosophy, trauma, dysfunctional families, horror and pure sadness all presented in the most unique and inventive format I've ever come across. I had one nightmare while reading this book, I feel as if I am possessed by it and I love it. An instant favourite.
