The House We Grew Up In by Lisa Jewell
DID NOT FINISH: 14%
I was hoping for a mystery… and I believe reading the beginnings and evolution of Lorelei’s hoarding was too infuriating to have to read/listen to for 11 more hours.
I also think that Meg’s brother hanging himself so early on in the book
invited even more heaviness to the story. It’s far too sad when it’s all at the beginning, with no build up. Reader please beware.
