Description
Small Spaces by Katherine Arden is a chilling ghost story about a girl named Beth and two brothers who loved her. A sinister specter known as "the smiling man" grants wishes, but at a terrible cost.
Ollie discovers the story while grieving a personal loss and becomes captivated by it. She begins to wonder if the smiling man might be real when she stumbles upon graves of people from the story on a school trip. A mysterious warning follows, urging Ollie and her classmates to flee into the woods.
As night falls, Ollie's digital wristwatch delivers a countdown message: RUN. With only two of her classmates by her side, she must navigate the treacherous landscape and avoid large places, as advised by the bus driver who warned them that "they'll come for the rest of you" at nightfall.
