This book is neither inventive nor imaginative. This book is neither awful nor amazing. I would categorize it as a fairly basic ghost story with heavy-handed metaphors for generational trauma. But hey, it's horror: heavy-handed metaphors is where it's at, traditionally. So that's... just fine. I didn't find this story particularly scary -- that's subjective. I did find the climax and ending predictable -- that's also fine, and probably also subjective. Horror fans won't find anything new here, nor will they be terribly disappointed. Hence, 3 stars. Upside: I had never heard of the band Of Feather and Bone, and now I have.
