This was an interesting haunted house story, with a cute lesbian romance on top. I do like reading YA horror, but this book was almost a little too tame for me. Then again, I am definitely much older than it's intended audience, and I can appreciate the need for tamer horror books. I'm a bit sick of the "hardline skeptic refuses to believe what they're seeing" trope, but that is a personal pet peeve. Overall, a very solid ghost story.
