I can read creepy books (mostly because things don't feel as 'real' when I read vs. when I watch something) but watching creepy movies? That's a big no-no. Still, I think it'd be fun to give this a whirl. Lovely review, Jenny!<br /><br />Laura @BlueEyeBooksLaura @BlueEyeBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12983345219563729728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7530705972708152378.post-20562739059164418212018-07-01T12:24:17.761-06:002018-07-01T12:24:17.761-06:00Yeah, if you’re good about ambiguous endings then ...Yeah, if you’re good about ambiguous endings then this one will work perfectly for you because the horror parts were particularly creepy.

I saw the preview for this before Hereditary I think, and it sealed the deal for me. I definitely want to read it before watching the movie. I'm glad to hear it's creepy and especially the house because haunted house stories are my favorite. I'm usually OK with ambiguous endings so we'll see!Jen | Book Denhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06512363115012929445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7530705972708152378.post-76717373071944887952018-06-28T21:40:28.333-06:002018-06-28T21:40:28.333-06:00It was nearly perfect.

It's such a shame too, because it sounds like the book really delivered on the horror front. =/Samantha@WLABBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11589486165371852904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7530705972708152378.post-62082872669348769342018-06-28T04:26:00.245-06:002018-06-28T04:26:00.245-06:00I have a Sarah Waters book on my TBR shelf, but I ...I have a Sarah Waters book on my TBR shelf, but I haven't been able to read it yet.

Still, I haven't read her again, and it's probably because of that first impression/disappointment. :)Lark https://www.blogger.com/profile/13777891312147377769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7530705972708152378.post-59700342908383460812018-06-27T14:39:05.501-06:002018-06-27T14:39:05.501-06:00It was worth the read I just wanted a definitive e...It was worth the read I just wanted a definitive ending and it was open ended. :( Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05738740015526095835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7530705972708152378.post-22705885563759570162018-06-27T14:37:37.670-06:002018-06-27T14:37:37.670-06:00It is.

I'm thinking this book's ending might drive me crazy, too. The haunted house aspect, though -- I'm always up for that! I'll have to give this one a go.

This sounds like a great read but I think I'd get frustrated too with sn ending like that. Still, Waters' writing is excellent IMO.
