Obsession

i expected a lot from this book, which makes a go of being a traditional gothic horror; too much, it turns out. i could not get into it. there was none of the dread, suspense, or concept that i expect from a Campbell novel, so i finally gave up after about 50 pages. life is too short for lackluster books. give it a try, though; it's not horrible, and you may dig it.
