DNF. horrible writing

fun short-ish story with a unique ghost haunting

this book had its cool moments but it felt like the majority was very wondering. pretentious at times, i did end up liking the supernatural radio idea about the book. i would never say this book was “scary”.
i would say its a story about a likable main character (who may or may not be an unreliable narrator) who is haunted by his past.
i think if this book cut out all the boring pointless chunks of descriptive metaphysical text, and stuck faithfully to the story- id be better

DNF. boring sad girl depression book.

This book was okay.
i think i was disappointed because people set the bar so high. multiple people said this was one of the scariest books theyve ever read and i cant believe that.

the gore and body horror was squirm-worthy but nothing truly fear-inducing ever transpired. more than one of the child-characters is unlikable so i didnt care when they were gone.

the snippets of post-story interviewing and what not wasnt the best. it made the story drag and gave away too much of what was happening in real time.

though it wasnt as scary as id hoped, there were a handful of very nice excerpts about friendship and death- not that i was expecting them here lol
