I loved this story and hearing it read by the author. She was positively delightful to listen to. A beautiful, mysterious story that I'm still thinking about a few weeks after I listened to it. I can see why Reese chose this one!

Sarah and Patrick are happy. But after her mother's death, Sarah spirals into depression and overdoses on sleeping pills. While Sarah claims it was an accident, her teenage children aren't so sure. Patrick decides they all need a fresh start and he knows just the place, since the idyllic family home where he was raised has recently come up for sale. There's only one catch: for the past 15 years, it has become infamous as the "Murder House", standing empty after a family was stabbed to death within its walls.

I loved this book. Gothic, spooky, a sense of building dread throughout. Great narration. Twists I didn't see coming.

In The Power, the world is a recognizable place: There's a rich Nigerian boy who lounges around the family pool; a foster kid whose religious parents hide their true nature; an ambitious American politician; a tough London girl from a tricky family. But then a vital new force takes root and flourishes, causing their lives to converge with devastating effect. Teenage girls now have immense physical power: They can cause agonizing pain and even death. And, with this small twist of nature, the world drastically resets.

terrible American accents
Revisado: 07-15-19
I really wanted to like this book, and was expecting it to be closer to the caliber of The Handmaid's Tale, since it was endorsed by Margaret Atwood. However, I found the story to be rather tedious. This particular performance was fine when the reader was speaking in her native accent, but her American accent was atrocious and annoying -- I flinched every time I knew one of the American characters was going to speak. I would rather she had just read it in her own voice the whole time, without using any accents. Sometimes she used a southern U.S. accent and a Midwest U.S. accent (both done poorly) for the same character. With that said, I know others who absolutely loved this book and highly recommended it. Just not my cup of tea.
