when will i learn to stop reading riley sager books? i’ve liked 2 and disliked the rest. this one is a mess. i thought this was going to take a terrible paranormal twist just like the house across the lake & was ready to be PISSED. but thankfully it course corrected, although not sure how much of a difference that made.
the book introduced so many tropes and red herrings and unreliable narratives that you weren’t sure where this one would end up. the twist was unexpected and sweet but still just plain.
it’s well written but as far as start to finish goes, lackluster.
