*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review and is recommended for mature readers.
Isla lives alone in a mansion deep in the woods and she hires Marie to help around the house. But Isla has some dark secrets and, told from the point of view of the house, puts the reserved Marie in peril.
It’s a unique choice to have the house tell the story and it’s one dramatic house. The writing is lyrical and poetic and since we don’t get much dialogue from the characters themselves, we don’t get a full explanation of that the heck is going on or what Isla is. I like the art, I think it fits the drama in the writing and having blood red as the only color is impactful for the eye. But I didn’t feel like I had the complete story so it was overall unsatisfying despite being initially intrigued. 3.2 out of 5.
