I thought this was going to be more of a spooky haunted house story, but that was not the case. The book was very long, almost too much detail and from way too many perspectives. The end came together with a satisfying twist, but overall a decent dragged out story

Meh. Just not that interesting. I feel like this was written to be a movie, not a book.

I felt like this book had a lot of potential but fell a bit short. I enjoyed that the perspective switched back and forth but it almost jumped between too many characters and there were so many plots that just ended and seemed unnecessary. I wish the author would have dug deeper into fewer scenarios. It took forever to get to the climax and then just dropped and I was left with a lot of unanswered questions.

It was okay. Predictable, yet all over the place. I feel like I'm being generous with 3 stars.
