An enjoyable reimagining of a classic.
The characters, the premise, everything was beautifully created.
However, numerous errors stop this book from being great. Missing words from sentences, incorrect word variants (such as "magical" where "magic" should be), and sentences that seemed to have been edited, but fragments of the original phrasing remain embedded still within. This novel deserves better editing to really shine like it should.
Still, it was a good story and a worthwhile read. Just right for spooky season. ✌🏻
