Personally, I found nothing wrong with the writing or story except that there was too much of it. I found there were many major controversial topics brought into the story which couldn’t realistically be addressed. It would have been easier if they were mentioned as an aside and not focused since ultimately they don’t play a role in the story. Some of the topics included people developing cancer from a local industry, the trauma related to women having miscarriages, haunted houses and paranormal activity, and mental illness.
Then, the storyline becomes confusing with the history regarding ownership of the house through the years. I think the story would’ve felt more cohesive if some of the details of the extraneous information were left out. It only served as a distraction making me wondering how these topics were related to the overall story.
I received a complimentary digital copy of this book from Edelweiss and Atria Books. This review is my voluntary unbiased opinion.
