Sleep Tight by J.H. Markert

3.0

---

2.5 ⭐️ Rounded up for GR. I wish I had known more about this book going into it. It’s been touted as a horror novel but it is more a psychological thriller/detective mystery, which was a shock to me. This was NOT scary at all and I think I wanted to be scared. I like going into these types of books blind and in this case the build up fell very flat for me since it was nothing like the cover or the hype suggested. This book throws everything and the kitchen sink at the story line. I was getting whiplash with having to keep up with the time, place and people involved. This was an audiobook and I felt my mind wandering which rarely happens when I listen to books, so I’m sure I missed things because I was NOT engaged in this book at all. I was definitely curious to know what was going to happen but then it got overly complex and I just kind of gave up caring. I don’t know if I could articulate how this book ended or not if someone asked. I wanted to love this and anticipated this release for months, I am majorly disappointed.

I very much appreciate Netgalley and Dreamscape Media for the ALC of this book in exchange for my honest review.

This book is out now!
