We Live Here Now by Sarah Pinborough
5.0

The story follows Emily and Freddie as they move into a new home after Emily has recovered from an incident and she has some experiences that questions her sanity at times. The story did have me questioning til the very end of this if it was all really happening or if she was in a coma and this was just a story she created in her head. But I was delightfully surprised that the twists and turns and supernatural aspects were all indeed happening in reality, well, the reality of that world, and the other-worldly purgatory (for lack of a better term) was an interesting concept. I did audiobook this (thank you NetGalley for the ALC) so the last hour or so of this book had me on the edge of my seat and I was craving more and more and I definitely was not disappointed. I did find the very ending amusing, being stuck in the space with your significant other who murdered you was the cherry on the top of the twist story. The secrets of the house and the marriage and previous occupants makes you wonder what may be hiding in your own home.
