WOW! Thank you you NetGalley and the Publisher for this ARC. I absolutely loved this YA Gothic Horror. After a Bipolar incident and subsequent diagnosis, Libby and her family move to her childhood home for a fresh start. But it's all too obvious that something is lurking in the house, and it is t all the bugs. This had such a real depiction of Bipolar Disorder and an amazing aesthetic of a gothic, complete with haunted house. I adored all of the characters as well as the plot progression. The book had me hooked since Chapter two and the pace was fast all the way through. HIGHLY recommend!
