3.5 to 4 stars

This book is like a long drawn out violin screech in a horror movie.

It was a bit frustrating not knowing what was going on and the book just dragged on and on; nerves stretching to almost snapping point because you know something bad is going to happen - the build up of the unease was very well done.

Needless to say, I had to take a break and 3 trashy romances later, I was back in to it and oh my goodness, it got incredibly creepy.

There was this one scene that made me SO glad I read it during the day. *shudders*

Did the end pay off for the long drawn out pace? Yes and no. Yes, because some things were revealed, but then there were more questions that popped up. >_>
