Forgot I bailed on this the other night... it moved SOOO slowly. Gothic horror isn't for me. I realize now that it's the first in a series but I'm still out. High creep factor for scary kids but it didn't get moving until I was 72% in and I was just over it all.

Not 100% sure that gothic horror is for me. I'm trying to get through this at drum lessons and I'm honestly nodding off. It's moving a bit slow for me but I'm just getting this Hawthorne vibe from the storytelling and I am NOT a fan of Hawthorne... may DNF this...
