Let's start with saying I absolutely love the cover! But, as they say, don't judge a book by its cover.

Sarah, an influencer, bought a bargain house that she plans to renovate and sell for a profit. But this is not going to be as easy as she thinks, This house has a history and not a good one. Nobody from the neighborhood will set foot near it.

Right from the beginning I was not a big fan of Sarah and her husband but I was more curious why this house was so creepy and "alive" so I continued to read it. As you follow along you get to learn more about Sarah and her past. She really is an interesting and twisted individual.

This is a dark, creepy and full of twists story that I really enjoyed. Perfect Halloween read.

Thank you NetGalley, Random House Publishing and the author for a copy of ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This was an interesting read for sure. The begging was very slow for me. It took awhile before I felt it really started going. Once the plot sped up, it got better. I was originally going to rate this a 2.5 star. But, that ending brought it up to a 3 star for me. Worth the read.

I was really enjoying this book for the first 90% of it. It was creepy, mysterious, and suspenseful. Until it wasn't. The climax to this story left me confused and wanting. It felt like the author didn't know where she wanted to go with certain elements. I mean, was the house haunted? Were the town people nuts? What was the deal with the main character? I thought the end would clear it up, and it did and didn't. I still have questions. I really liked the creepy elements in this book. I jumped a few times in bed when I heard a noise in my house while I was reading this. I rushed through the book having to know what was going to happen, and the explanation to it all was just watery. Oh well. I got creeped out, so I'm not too disappointed.
