This book is disturbing in the best way. I already have a bit of an obsession with washing my hands and writing lists and such, and reading this made me itch to start cleaning something. I really like how the disturbing factors subtly grow until you just can't deny the lurking feeling that something is very wrong. I also like the way the truth is revealed - though I saw it coming in a general sense, I admit I was shocked by the particulars.

Buried is morbidly fascinating and makes you think about just how much your mind is capable of. It really doesn't have any direct conflict - the conflict is within the main character's mind. This is a good read if you like creepy stories but don't necessarily want Stephen King level horror.
