With all of the good books I’ve been reading lately, it’s about time to come across a dud. 😭

The idea of a true crime blogger hooked me and the haunted house kept me interested, but there’s a reveal about halfway through that lost me completely.

Don’t get me wrong, I liked learning about this alleged killer’s backstory (probably the most interesting thing about this book other than the haunted house), but there were things we shouldn’t know about this early on. It made me lose interest in the mystery since we’re reading about the other characters figuring out things we’ve already been told. 

I got so bored that I considered DNFing with only 50 pages left.

Also, I hated how this book focused solely on the serial killer aspect. I almost forgot about the men who were actually killed because we got very little information about them. This book preys on the morbid fascination that people have toward murderers and ignored the stories of the victims. 

I would skip this one. 

That being said, the writing was very atmospheric and I like this author’s style. I would read other books from her, but this was a poor one to start with. 🙈
