I started off liking this, I really did, but that gradually started to wear off, especially when it became apparent that this was leaning more towards mystery than horror. Don't get me wrong, I love a good mystery, but I was in the mood for horror, ghosts and ghouls as opposed to horrific murder. 👻 Save for a sense of eeriness in chapter 1, that was it for horror of the supernatural kind.
As for the rest of the book, I found it quite repetitive, particularly in chapter 3. Why did we have to keep going over old ground multiple times? Given the shortness of the book, it's not as though I was going to forget what was going on. 🤔
The characters were unremarkable, and I found that, with the possible exception of Iwata, I didn't care for them or what happened to them. For some reason, it was Iwata's fate, and his alone, that moved me. 😔
This had the makings of a great book, but it just seemed to lose momentum right around chapter 3. It's a decent enough read, but it doesn't live up to its hype.
