Horror meets young adult in this book! I was glued to the pages and actually finished this book in one sitting (yes all 450+ pages). This should be on your next read if you are a horror fan; the ending was my favorite part of this book, so read it all!

Eileen is a dark and disturbing Christmastime story about a young woman living in an unnamed New England town, sometime in the 1960s, caring for her alcoholic father while working at a prison for boys. Is Eileen an unreliable narrator or are things really about to go off the rails? Moshfegh's writing paints a vivid picture of this bleak winter, and the doomed friendship that gives Eileen a sliver of hope for her future.

I was given this book but was reluctant to read it because of the cover! However I was pleasantly surprised to enjoy a very good read once I decided to persevere and read it. It follows the trials and tribulations of a once landed family in England who are trying to maintain the inheritance despite overwhelming current circumstances. I really enjoyed it.
