3.0

It was good and would be amazing if it was a movie - think Cast Away vibes but in a house labyrinth. The world building is so good and the way everything is described builds such a magnificent picture in your head. It’s 3 stars because I was almost expecting more? I don’t know what - but it just didn’t feel the way other 4* and 5* books in the past have.
