I am so sad that I didn't like this book! I really thought this was going to be a new favorite. The premise sounds terrifying and I thought the way it was written was original and unique, but it wasn't for me. I was intrigued in the beginning, but as it went on, I got so bored. The first half is the set up for the invasion, which would have been creepy and interesting if it didn't go on for so long. I feel like this would have been more effective as a novella. The writing was also confusing at times and it kept pulling me out of the story. I also felt disconnected with what was going on that when things were actually happening, I didn't feel scared or disturbed. I didn't feel anything. I only finished this because I wanted to know how everything was going to play out. Plus, the audiobook helped a lot, if I had read this physically, I would have DNFed it.

Fucked up but also fucked up. why would you write about a home invasion like this?? I live in a home!!
i was expecting to be terrified by this bc home invasion is a HUGE (very specific) fear of mine ??? but the format honestly just made it so boring and kind of annoying to read lol

The setup (where you're casing the house and everything) was incredibly boring, and the narrative style got super confusing at points. But I guess I enjoyed it?
