At that moment I began to doubt my own reality.

This was my first Susan Hill read and I can say that I'm now very excited to explore some of her other works. I don't read a lot of gothic horror, but this definitely worked for me and I'd like to wade a little further into the genre. The writing conveyed such a strong atmosphere and I found myself really swept up in everything. It was definitely spooky, but didn't outright scare me, which is a nice happy medium. I thought the characters were well-done, although we only spend time with a few of them. My only complaint was that the ending felt rushed and a little abrupt.

Buddy read with Sarah!
