Incidents Around the House by Josh Malerman
4.0
One star extra for the audio performance alone. Hiring an actual child to narrate a book from the perspective of a child adds so much immersion. She does a great job with the adult voices as well, really talented girl
The weakness is the adult characters and the pacing. It starts really fast and then drags pretty long. The parents are immature and unlikable, I think their drama took too much space. The way the parents would freak out and scream and run meanwhile the kid was calm and logical,,,,, it did make it scarier but it also made it more annoying. I wanted less adults and more child perspective, which feels odd to say. I think they could've dug in deeper with her thoughts and emotions
Solid, could have been remarkable, impeccable audio performance
