my neither tried nor tested theory about shirley jackson is that she derives most horror from isolation (fantasies?), and that's why i'm immune to the kind of horror she writes. this book didn't scare me in the least. didn't enjoy it anywhere as much as we have always lived in the castle, went in with the wrong mindset of the horror as debatable, found the men annoying. eleanor and theodora... yeah i felt that :( :(

enjoying this less than we have always lived in the castle so far but hmm i think it's just that haunted houses and the is it real or no part isn't all that intriguing to me
