I liked it. It wasn't as scary as I'd hoped, and the end veered off into Mama territory, but for the most part it was a great character study in desparation. I was wondering if anyone else noticed this about the children's book aspect: in the first birthday party scene the mom mentions that she was a writer, and that she did work for magazines and was attempting a children's book (or something along those lines). I was wondering if the book was her work that she had repressed?
