This book was quite the book to end 2024 with! I donāt even know where to start. From the first page, I was immediately hooked wondering where the story was going to go. This book had everything you could ask for from a thriller: suspense, mystery, creepy vibes, questionable characters, spooky setting, etc. This book had so much going on, leaving breadcrumbs everywhere from start to finish but still making you wonder what the heck is going on. By the end of the book, I wondered what in the world I had read and now feel like I need to reread it in the future to look at some of the previous scenes in the book and how they relate to the bigger, overall picture. This book was the authorās debut novel and I canāt wait to see what else he writes in the future! Have you ever stayed or lived in a spooky house? Synopsis: A young queer couple, Eve and Charlie, believe theyāve scored the deal of a lifetime when they purchase an old home in rural Portland, Oregon that they plan to renovate. Soon after moving in, a mysterious family appears on their doorsteps asking to come in. The father of the family claims he used to live at the home and asks Eve if he can show his family around. As soon as Eve lets them in, strange things begin to happen. What seems explainable becomes unexplainable. And worse yet, the family does not seem to want to leave. When Eve starts seeing mysterious shadow creatures, things that she swears were there that suddenly arenāt, Eve begins to question the family and the reality sheās living in.
