The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson

The story moves at a fast pace rich in dialog and attention to detail. Interesting eccentric characters, which I found all likable.

A bit of Gothic-psychological-suspense and paranormal undertones, I was hooked from the first page. Overall I really enjoyed The Haunting of Hill house. I highly recommend to all.

Este volumen presenta una selección de los cuentos de Shirley Jackson e incluye tres conferencias de la autora, una de las cuales dedicada, precisamente, al escándalo que supuso la publicación de su texto más conocido.”… (lisätietoja)

Such a cute, funny book, I laughed out loud at times, it was simply great. We've got a charming family with lots of books, cats and small children, we can see their everyday joys and problems and it was really delightful to read. Five stars.
