It Was Her House First by Cherie Priest

4.0

---

It Was Her House First by Cherie Priest was a fun read. This book is told from multiple POVs, following new homeowner Ronnie Mitchell, inspector Bartholomew Sloan, and silent film star Venita Rost. This is also told in a dual timeline going back and forth between the past and present. I really enjoyed Venita's diary entries. Ronnie wins an auction and buys a house completely unseen, a house that needs a lot of repairs and renovations and is haunted by the ghosts that have died there. This was a mix of an HGTV fixer-upper show and a haunted house. I found this book to be enjoyable. 

I received an advance review copy, and I am leaving my honest review voluntarily.
