Representaion During Books And the Trees Crept In
Stay away from the woods…When Silla and Nori arrive at their aunt’s home, it’s immediately clear that the manor is cursed. The endless creaking of the house at night and the eerie stillness of the woods surrounding them would be enough of a sign, but there are secrets too—questions that Silla can’t ignore: Why does it seem that, ever since they arrived, the trees have been creeping closer? Who is the beautiful boy who’s appeared from the woods? And who is the tall man with no eyes who Nori plays with in the basement at night… a man no one else can see?

While the positive reviews for And the Trees Crept In have been rolling in for the past few months, I'm left wondering, What did I miss? What a totally random, stupid book.The cover is unbelievably stunning and the premise sounds so intriguing: It follows Silla and Nori, two sisters who move into their aunt Cath's spooky old manor. But Silla can't help feeling like the woods outside the house are creeping closerand then there's the story about the Creeper Man in the woods.The beginning actuallyI'm so glad it's over.And you call this scary??I was so excited to read this book. Everyone says it's scary as hell and I was expecting a book that could make me cry from fear. I know I'm not easy to scare, but this one wasn't even creepy. Like AT ALL.There was maybe some weird imagery (mam sewing hair in her leg, teeth falling etc.) that kind of stuck to my mind, but it didn't give me the creeps.Everything else was boring. Silla keeps repeating the whole book how something is wrong and that the
I really loved this until the story started to come to an end. I passionately hate the ending. It was such a lazy, uncreative conclusion to this otherwise very unique story!! I'm so upset lol.*SPOILERS AHEAD*Seriously, she was dead all along?? This is so old and overused aaah. That's the same shit as the "it was all just a dream" ending! Hell no. That takes away all of the horror of the book. It's stupid.
3.5 StarsI had high expectations going into this, maybe a little too high because while I did like this, I didn't fall in love with it like I wanted to.Don't get me wrong, it was good and definitely creepy at times but the writing also felt convoluted and the beginning was, not necessary slow but it did have a build up that took awhile to get there. To really get the feel of what was going on. We learn little by little exactly what the manor house is all about, what the creeper man is and of
This should have been a 5 star book. My main problem with it was that I knew almost immediately what had happened with these people. There were just too many clues. What I didn't know were the why's or wherefore's. Still I loved the writing and would definitely read more from this author. Recommended.
It's impossible not to see that House of Leaves was an inspiration when it comes to this novel. The vibes are so similar, the growing tension, the evil spell the house casts on the inhabitants, the eerie sensory experiences inside. It's another super freaky Dawn Kurtagich novel and one that I thought was really well done. CW: Domestic abuse, murder, permanent disfigurement, suicide, suicidal thoughts, eating disorders, starvation, death of animals, body gore (a lot of teeth rotting/falling out),
