Trent and his family move into their dream home, once inside Trent starts to see more and more flaws and issues with the house. He consults a string of Youtube videos with Handyman Hank. As the how-to videos start to become more and more unhinged, Trent quickly descends into madness while dragging his family down with him. Family secrets, absolute brutality, and clever writing made this quite an enjoyable read for bookclub.

Forgettable. I wish I could say it's because of the toxic masculinity like the rest of the women going off in these reviews but that's not it (like hello, we are supposed to hate the MC here, yeah? That's the point... Does this make me a bad female?)
Written well, it just wasn't for me though I can't explain why... This book has left me stumped on a review.
