This isn't the kind of thing I would normally pick up (too spoopy) but it had been highly recommended by a few people whose opinion I respect (and also I was looking for a short-ish audiobook) soo I checked it out. I loved the voice (literally, since I listened to this on audio) and the strong historical/cultural grounding.

A great, not-too-scary story, that's also a great historical fiction story about life in the Jim Crow South.
