A review by crazyforbooksandcoffee
The Drowning House by Cherie Priest

3.5

A violent storm washes a mysterious house onto the beach. Stopping the heart of the only woman who understands what the house means. Simon Culpepper her Grandson vanishes and his friends Melissa and Leo come back home to try and find him. They soon realise there is evil on the island and they may be in danger.

This was a slow start and took a while to get my interest but the last 1/3 had me hooked when things got interesting. Melissa and Leo were both slightly annoying as characters so don't think that helped but still overall a decent read and creepy in parts.

Thank you to Netgalley, Poisoned Pen Press and Cherie Priest for an advance copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
