the main characters are too interested in the supernatural nonsense happening in the corner, which makes for a pretty funny juxtaposition.

Lol, funnily enough, that's the exact same vibe I'm getting from A House With Good Bones. The main POV is mostly Tired and Just Wants to Rest, and a lot of the creepy that's going on is kind of sailing blithely over her head because she is focused on whether her mom has dementia and sciencing out why the bugs are acting weird in her mom's house. It makes for an interesting "horror" book. ;P

Oh wow, that does sound like a pretty interesting horror book! Poor protagonist, so many things going on that the horror doesn't even register on the stress scale...! XD

Is "cozy horror" a thing? Because that book would be cozy horror. :P
