not nearly as scary as i thought it would be. i think the ideas were really cool but the writing style wasnt really anything to write home about. i wish we had spent more actual time in the house??? like for how much this was supposedly a haunted house book a majority of the book did not actually take place in the house. i think this would have worked better as a novella and the ‘reveal’ of like what happened to stacy would have hit much harder bc it seemed pretty obvious from early on. there were just too many hints at it and it wouldve been more impactful without them. even tho this book was only 260 pages it took much longer than i expected to read. we spent so much time with this ‘agh i have this big secret omg this terrible thing happened’ and not enough time with all the super cool strings that tied everything together. all of the pieces were great, but they didnt quite gel the way i wanted in the end. 

i wish we would’ve had more povs from stacy. also max and jane their story was super interesting esp the ‘i have to get me back’ thing. and the scene of eric seeing himself ?!?

overall the ideas were really great and i look forward to seeing what this author puts out.
