4.0
Would recommend this to people who like the level of horror that „The Blair Witch Project“ has (because there are things-you-can-see-or-maybe-not in the woods).
The first 25% are the horror of having to clean out a hoarders house and, knowing that this is something I will have to deal with some day, ignited a terror of its own.
The next chapters, up to 65%, were the scariest to me
The latter half of the book was still scary, but in a more uncanny way and not as psychological draining as the first half.
To me, this book could have been unreadable (because I can not deal that good with horror) - but all the characters are so loveable and it is clear from the start, that Mouse and her dog will make it out alive.
I will definitely check out other books by T. Kingfisher.
