This book is a tough pill to swallow. It was an emotionally challenging experience that could leave a lasting impact on one's mind. Carmen has done an excellent job in writing the book, using a captivating house analogy that portrays a house that is not actually a house and how a dream could become a nightmare. Her writing style is beautiful and captivating, allowing readers to empathize with her and understand the trauma and pain she has been through. Overall, it was a touching and great book.

This book got me hooked so fast. The way the stories from different POVs were really interesting and how it navigates in the dark waters of the uncertain kept me hanging and wanting for more. Took me a while to figure out the plot, predictable a little bit but still a great story.
The experience with the audiobook made the book even better, the production is incredible.
Highly recommended!
