TW: all your typical horror stuff - death, gore, ghosts, etc

This was a WILD ride. I don’t remember the last time I binge read a book so fast. I very rarely read anything close to horror (and this is as close as I get!) but this maintained a sense of eerie foreboding, dread, and mystery the entire time. I had to keep reading to find out what happened! There is an element of not knowing what is real and what’s not that the reader shares with the characters. This is an excellent spooky read.

There were some things I don’t think were quite as strong. Some things were left unexplained that I would have liked to know more about (but also maybe there’s a point to that). There were also some things about the fantasy elements that were a little outlandish for me. And the romance was just not something I cared about in the midst of all the suspense. But overall, a solid spooky story.
