Our House
by Louise Candlish
I've been intrigued by this novel's premise ever since I heard about it. It really is distressing to think about how quickly and easily identity/property theft could ruin someone's life. That fear is at the heart of OUR HOUSE, which starts with Fiona's discovery of strangers moving into her house and moves backward in time to explain how and why it happened. While the plot is compelling, I wanted more complexity from it, more twists and surprises. It didn't have a lot of those. The ending is just depressing. Overall, then, OUR HOUSE is engrossing but not all that satisfying.
