Not enough mystery slow, too much romance for me

Revisado: 05-19-24

Characters were not believable for me. Main character too enamored and dependent on the neighbors decisions to be believable for me at the start of the novel. If you had not seen someone for years why would you care what they do? The passed time makes them a stranger. Being upset to me is not realistic even for a nieve character.

Good ghost story

Revisado: 12-30-21

I liked this story. It was the first I read from this author. The plot was well developed. Character dialogue was believable. Narration was okay about a 7/10. Narrator did good daughter and female neighbor voices which made listening to this book easier to follow. Narrator is not Scott Brick who can make a slow burn book interesting enough to finish by breathing new life into a book. The narrator for this one is good enough. The book has lots of twists and no plot holes that are distracting in some books. In the end the story pieces all came together in this book. Also the main characters and daughter are endearing. This makes the reader care about what happens to the characters.

Slow moving, not scary

Revisado: 11-07-21

If you’re looking for a Gothic novel that will catch you from the star this is not it. The narrator I found very monotonous and hard to listen to. And the storyline I felt dragged. Too many embellishments not enough useful details that were needed to move the story forward

Fast paced kept me on my toes

Revisado: 10-08-21

I have never read anything by Linwood Barclays. All I can say is wow! This book was like a ride in a high speed race car. The narrator is excellent. The plot enthralling. I really enjoyed the ride. I probably will read all of this authors other books. I loved it!

Very slow burn with overly dramatic character conversations

Revisado: 08-08-21

The plot at times was confusing and the pacing was at a snails pace throughout. Not recommended. One of my worst reads in this genre.

Overall excellent terrifying and enjoyable read

Revisado: 05-23-21

This book reminds me of the Haunting of Hill House. The book is well written each piece there for a reason. It has a slow build up at times but all in all an excellent listen. I liked the narration and sound effects that added to the audio book’s overall ambience and horror. This book has a snip of Alfred Hitchcock and blends into a surprise ending that will have you saying “wow” to yourself when it is done.

Slow burn

Revisado: 03-13-21

This one was a bit too slow for me to get into the story five chapters and there’s has still not been any interesting events that have occurred in the storyline. To get me interested I would recommend for this author to put something very interesting that happens in the first two chapters and go from there. For the next novel that’s definitely recommended. I stopped reading at this point because the narrator also was poor on this Book.

To many adverbs

Revisado: 03-13-21

There is such thing as too much embellishment and description in a novel and this was so distracting for me and this one that I stopped listening after the first chapter
