Come Closer by Sara Gran

This is a sinister story that you can read in just a few hours. It's about Amanda, who is happily married with a great job as an architect. As strange things begin happening to her, she can't quite figure out if it's her, or something else. Like the tapping she constantly hears at home (it's the pipes), or the strange incident at work (must have been a practical joke).

But as things get more sinister, Amanda finds herself consulting a book on demon possession she's sure was sent to her by mistake. And each time she consults the checklist of symptoms, her score creeps higher and higher.

I wouldn't describe this book as scary, so much as eerie. Sara Gran pulls you in right away in this short, densely packed read.
