There are so many moments that can be interpreted in different ways and made me question my perceptions on everything.

A part of me wants to wait eight months to write a more balanced, clear review for it as was the case with The Haunting of Hill House, which became more likable and comprehensive over time as I thought over it. I’m lost on where to start in reviewing this title. ![]()
