Rating: 3.75 / 5 Stars
I am such a big fan of this author’s books!
She’s so creative and her books always have the craziest plot twists. You never know what to expect – Time travel? Dream walking? Messages from spirits? Or is everyone just going crazy?
This book was no different. As I read I tried creating my own theories and I was so wrong – which is great because I love being surprised.
The only reason I’m not giving it a higher rating is because it was dragging in the middle. It got repetitive. Husband hating wife. Wife hating husband. Weird things happening in the house. Repeat.
BUT, the last 60 or so pages were super gripping! When it finally hit the spot, it was fantastic. And wow, what a unique twist!
After surviving an accident and being in a coma for months, Emily and Freddy are ready for a fresh start. They move from a small apartment in London to a big house in a small city. Yes, you guessed what comes next: haunted house. Odd smells. It’s always cold. Weird noises at night.
Since Emily is not currently working, she starts investigating the past of the house. Is it haunted or is she going crazy? This is the part that makes my eyes roll. We’ve seen thousands of similar plots. Luckily, the wrapup of the story was great! Chef’s kiss. I promise it’s not a cookie-cutter thriller.
