Thanks to NetGalley for an advanced reader copy! 

This book was amazing! So haunting and tense. I occasionally forgot to breathe as Libby and Vivi fought against the House of Masks and its ghastly inhabitants. The dread and sorrow that Libby contends with alongside her depression and crumbling familial relationships was palpable on every page. 

I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves horror and especially a good haunted house/Gothic horror.
