3.0

The writing of this book is dense, it’s incredibly descriptive- some of it adds to the spookiness other parts seem pointless and don’t add anything at all. It definitely picks up in the second half of the book and my heart was definitely beating faster. Whilst it was challenging , it was still a good  read. I definitely think the play captures the story much better than the book.
