4/5
Wrote a review, guess it didn't save.
This book, was one I had very high hopes for, who wouldn't ?? With the Winterbourne home on the cliffs, very Wuthering Heights feel. Sadly, it fell short. I liked the overall story and the creepy setting was a perfect start.
One of the biggest things that bothered me and I am guessing I am the only one, not seeing anyone else write it but, the timeline in Alice's story. A file was found and it was different then the actions seen at the house. This bothered me the most. I thought the author may have been trying to hard, adding things that did not needed to be added. I wanted to know more about the painting, the witch, the twins and Alice Miller. The sub stories were not needed. I did also want to know if the mirror and painting were related. Did one effect the other ??
The story seemed to drag in many places. It felt long and drawn out. Most of the action actually takes place towards the end. It was hard to hold my attention some spots. The spots would have been better if shorten or even more action.
I did like the creepy, I liked the spooky, and even liked the research that was done in the end. It was not a horrible book. Like I said over all I did like it.
