When I read Lock Every Door I wasn’t super impressed with Riley Sager but decided to give his books another chance and I’m so glad I did!
This book was amazing! Kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time & had a surprise ending I should’ve seen coming but definitely didn’t. And I’m always here for a surprise ending! This is a haunted house type book which made me nervous because I don’t believe in ghost and the last “ghost” story I read I wasn’t a fan of but Sager definitely wrote this one magnificently and had me shaking in my seat! I highly recommend this one if you haven’t read it yet.
