Lock Every Door: A Novel
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Looking for a suspense novel that will keep you up until way past midnight? Look no further than Lock Every Door, by Riley Sager."--Stephen King No visitors. No nights spent away from the apartment. No disturbing the other residents, all of whom are rich or famous or both. These are the only rules for Jules Larsen's new job as an apartment sitter at the Bartholomew, one of Manhattan's most high-profile and mysterious buildings. Recently heartbroken and just plain broke, Jules is taken in by the splendor of her surroundings and accepts the terms, ready to leave her past life behind. As she gets to know the residents and staff of the Bartholomew, Jules finds herself drawn to fellow apartment sitter Ingrid, who comfortingly reminds her of the sister she lost eight years ago. When Ingrid confides that the Bartholomew is not what it seems and the dark history hidden beneath its gleaming facade is starting to frighten her, Jules brushes it off as a harmless ghost story...until the next day, when Ingrid disappears. Searching for the truth about Ingrid's disappearance, Jules digs deeper into the Bartholomew's sordid past and into the secrets kept within its walls. What she discovers pits Jules against the clock as she races to unmask a killer, expose the building's hidden past, and escape the Bartholomew before her temporary status becomes permanent.

Holy shit. I checked this book out yesterday and finished it this morning. MUST READ. Riley Sager’s writing style is effortless, and pulls you in from page 1. What a twist at the end!
Another successful Sager read! I was expecting this to be more of a paranormal read than a thriller and as much as I wasn't shocked by the big reveal, I still enjoyed this entire narrative.
A secretive, rich, building with suspicious dealings going is the perfect formula for this set up. I figured out pretty quickly who the "bad guy" was, but I did not figure out that there was more to the story.

Riley Sager, come on. I love some of your books but they are all either a big hit or a big miss. This one was for sure the latter.
Jules is one of the dumbest MCs I've read in a while. Repeats past people's mistakes that she legit researched and knew about, yet turns around and does it exactly the same. This book is also full of cliches and tropes. Way too many. I knew what was happening all the time because of it; completely ruins any mystery.
Also, despite the blurb and despite the cover, not a ghost story. Nothing scary happens AT ALL. Boring, predictable, and lame.
