Girl in the Walls by A.J. Gnuse
2.0
Girl in the Walls has a brilliant unique concept, but sadly its execution is a little overblown. At its best, it offers a modern twist on the gothic novel, tense and atmospheric. But most of the time, the focus isn't in quite the right place. The characters are a little flat, and we never really unlock the grief and denial which should sit at the heart of this story.
For a novel that seemed overlong, I feel like very little was actually said - Girl in the Walls is sadly almost as hollow as the walls the girl inhabits.
*Thank you to Netgalley for the arc in exchange for an honest review*
