I was very intrigued by the premise of this book and I ended up enjoying it, just not as much as I had hoped.
It was very atmospheric and I could picture it becoming a movie easily, the descriptions of the Welsh countryside and the villagers, everything enhanced the ambience and the eerie feeling this book aimed to achieve.
Didn't really find it scary tbh, not something complaining about, cause I really don't do horror 😅 The reveal at the end was nice, though didn't catch me by surprise and not because I had guessed it myself. I don't know what it is, but it felt like the less we knew (the beginning of the book for example) was more interesting to me somehow.
