In the House in the Dark of the Woods

This review can also be found on my blog.

I honestly have no idea what this book was trying to accomplish. It starts off as a lighthearted fairytale of sorts and turns into...? It alternated between dry and confusing, sometimes both. There was one point where I thought I genuinely liked it and thought it had a great ending – until I realized I had only hit the 75% mark and had to muddle through to the true ending. This had the potential to say so much about abuse and trauma, which I thought was its purpose for a while, but it ended up being a bit of a meandering mess that I genuinely regret spending my time on.
