This book just didn't do it for me. I wasn't annoyed with the characters or the writing or the plot, I just wasn't as “scared” as I wanted to be or thought I would be. In fact, I laughed way more throughout the book than actually felt eerie, which is funny when reading a horror novel. Not laughed because it was bad, but I found many parts truly funny. I can see the appeal, but for me I guess my expectations were too high. I still plan on reading some of the authors other works and see how they compare. If you want an interesting and entertaining story I recommend it, but if you want to truly get scared or creeped out there are better options.
