This is one of those books that has you really in for a ride.
Is there something supernatural or sinister going on in this house that our main character has been taken into? I most certainly loved that it had a Gothic horror vibe to it.
- creepy, rich house
- daughter who is either faking an illness, possessed, or actually ill
- mother who is either cruel or possessed
- secrets and lies
The reason that I mark it down is I thought the writing was a bit too loose. I understand it is a YA book, I just thought it could be a bit tighter. Meaning that some of the plot points didn't really 'wrap up' smoothly or lead somewhere.
The love interest was also a bit lame. One of those quick to fall in love guys.
Other than that, it's a perfect October read.
