I rarely give 1 star reviews but unfortunately this short story just fell completely flat for me. For such a tiny book there was too much time spent on unnecessary details and way too little time spent on progressing the actual plot. I didn’t find the story remotely creepy, there were a number of plot holes and the ending felt ridiculously rushed. This book definitely wasn’t for me, sorry.
