This was a fun little mystery/fantasy with a horror spin later in the story. However, the ending really missed for me. It fell into some really toxic family relationship dynamics and presented them in a way that made it seem that the victim is responsible for repairing. I think they were trying to draw a parallel to the MC's family dynamics but it didn't land. Overall I still think it's a really interesting plot and a good story. The twist worked well. The moving book was definitely a good plot device.
