Eh Good ig

It was little slow. Almost felt like it never got to an OMG point. Almost lost interest. But good overall

Interesting. A little long but I liked it

In looking at the other reviews of this book, I feel like I listened to a different book than everyone else. I mean, it was ok, but it wasn't great. In my opinion.

I've read all of this author's books - really loved the first one, The Dead Key - that one at least felt very different from other books. The others I just haven't enjoyed as much. It's not that they are bad, but just not really any different. this book was essentially just another retelling of the Amityville Horror, only set in Cleveland, Ohio. OK, a little more history, but still. And all of the different time lines, while interesting in establishing the story line, really confused me as I listened and bogged the story down. I felt like it should have been wrapped up much faster than it was.

I will still read or listen to this author's books, and I'm grateful they have all been included with Kindle Unlimited so I can join for a month and binge on all the new-er books by authors I follow. But I'd like to see future books to be more like The Dead Key and less like this one.

From time to time I’ll do a blind grab at the library in hopes of reading something I never would’ve found otherwise.

It ended up being a haunted house book this time around, so nothing new. I did end up enjoying it far more than I expected and was surprised with the turn it took. The characters were a little unlikeable, but I think that was the point. Overall, an enjoyable time with some creepy and effective moments.

This is a very ho-hum haunted house story with all of your usual elements, like shadow figures, light fixtures and doors that seem to operate on their own, and ghostly whispers and singing.  In a lot of ways, I felt like I was reading a mediocre paperback from hell, and like some of those old stories, this was easy to read and kept me turning pages, but it was all very much a skimming the surface type of story.  The characters were mostly superficial and unlikeable (though I felt sympathy for Hunter) and with five different timelines, it was even harder to get invested in them.  I was most concerned about the Spielman gerbils throughout my reading experience here.
