The Red Tree, by Caitlin Kiernan

Absolutely fantastic, terrifying literary horror. Sarah Crowe, a depressed lesbian writer, moves into a spooky house with a spooky tree to recover from her girlfriend's suicide; her roommate is an artist with some odd resemblances to her dead girlfriend...

No happy endings - the entire book is Sarah's journal found after her own suicide - but if you like horror and metafiction, you will love it.

The Red Tree.
