What a pleasant surprise, I didn't expect to love this book so much.
This is a creepy, atmospheric gothic haunted house story with queer representation, really good themes and a satisfying ending. There are not many of those out there.
Although it's YA, it's also very dark. It deals with violence against girls, and there is gore. I would recommend for the upcoming spooky season, if you haven't read it yet.
