No One Gets Out Alive by Adam L.G. Nevill

This book realllllly dragged for me, maybe because it is a few different stories mashed together.

I felt like each chapter was repeated descriptions of the same few "spooky" events that never built into anything especially exciting. On top of that, the narrator incessantly analyzed each event in the same manner.

"Oh, there was a ghostly presence in my room....BUT HOW COULD THERE BE? For that would not be rational." For 620 pages. -_-

Absolute waste of time. Never reading it ever again. Took me so long to read it and put me into reading slumps multiple times. Plot felt pointless and was very, very slow. At the start I thought that it would get better, I hoped it would. But it only became somewhat interesting and less slow around the 500 page mark. Very sad it didn’t live up to what I thought it was going to be like.

The first 400 pages were good. This book made me uncomfortable and I felt like I was in the house.

However, the last 200+ pages were not needed in my opinion. The story didn’t need that type of closure to be complete.
