modern style young adult isnt really my usual preferred style, but i enjoyed this. the concept, what with ghosts who live in a building and can't leave, at first i thought it would be a bit like the tv show ghosts (which i liked), but this was quite different, (obviously, since its a novel with a central conflict and plot and stuff not a comedy tv show). the world building with the ghosts and how they worked was interesting, as well as the general concepts, and i liked slowly figuring out more about what was really happening as more was revealed as the story unfolded. harriets character and the stuff with her grandmother and that whole family was interesting, and i liked the other ghosts as well. the concept seemed quite unique, or at least i dont think ive read another book much like this one
I read like 250 pages of this today i think, although i do generally find that the modern young adult style is a lot quicker and easier to read than even stuff like fantasy books for kids/teenagers which is something closer to what i read more often. ( )

A darkly fun, and twisted read! From murderous ghosts to insane plot twists, this is the book I needed to set my mood for October. I loved and hated Harriet at every moment. She was such a refreshing antihero. I was on the edge of my seat for the entirety of the novel (I finished the book in the day as I couldn't handle the suspense) wondering what chaos Harriet was going to cause next. I sincerely hope there is a sequel, because that ending has me so nervous for our beloved Mulcture crew. ( )
