The Stranger Upstairs by Lisa M. Matlin
3.0

I hated the narrator. I think that's kind of the point, but it made the reading experience annoying. And then the ending, while page-turning, left so much unresolved - and not in a spooky way but just an unnecessarily and unprofitably ambiguous way. Like, I wonder if the author even knows the answer to all the little mysteries introduced to try to make the book more suspenseful?

But I wanted a quick read, and this one was entertaining enough.
