We Used to Live Here: A Novel

I was disappointed. The writer left so many loose ends and threw in so many irrelevant things. It seemed like a bunch of thoughts thrown together but not entirely connected. I would not recommend this to anyone

This intrigued me for the first 50%, but quickly became redundant and mundane. I completed this story with no answers to my questions, and I feel tricked for seeing it through, hoping for at least one answer. This is about Eve and Charlie, along with their dog Shylo, as they recently moved into a lonely, eerie neighbourhood to start their new lives. The house was not as expensive as the other options presented to them, even though there were a lot of renovations to be made, they took the house anyway. This is where we met Thomas, Paige, and their kids, Kai, Newton, and Jenny. After Eve agreed to have Thomas tour his family home that is when the family lore began. I don't know what to do with all the information I learned from this something, it was not worth it in the end. (Short 'n Sweet version -> I got mind f*cked for no reason😃)

Could NOT put it down!

It has the potential to be good. It definitely kept my attention and I breezed right through it. But the ending was SO disappointing and certainly does not give you answers. Many parts/alternate realities got a little confusing. I'm excited if they make this into a movie like they plan to - I will definitely watch it. Hopefully the movie doesn't disappoint as much as the book and they do an alternate ending.

I really enjoyed this but there was just something missing to take it from a good read to a really good read. You can tell it originated on Reddit, which is by no means a bad thing but it did have an internet horror feel about it. A lot of the characters weren’t explored but introduced as key parts of the story which was a bit of shame as the exploration of these characters might have filled a few gaps.
