Slow start but interesting development and ending. This is not a scary or horror book, at least in my opinion and the way I felt while reading it. Shirley Jackson did make a great job at writing this story.
If you are planning to read this because of the Netflix show, do know that this is a very different story with only some similarities and details they did decided to include in the series.
