Good morning! I'm about halfway through Incidents around the House and I absolutely love it. I had to stop reading it Saturday night because I started freaking myself out over every little sound I was hearing in my house. So going forward, I'm only reading it during the day. 😆☀️

Horror, Crime Mystery and Romantasy. That's quite a mix for this weekend. 😀
An ok book - but a lot of this authors books are just plain weird 🤨🧐 I was hoping for… more 😔
Read for reading challenges
3.5/5
I loved this! I‘m a huge Josh Malerman fan and I think I definitely liked this one as much as Bird Box and Malorie. The 8yr old protagonist Bela is a great narrator. She‘s extremely perceptive about what‘s happening even as her young age means she doesn‘t always understand. This is a super creepy story, with a lot to say about the weight of secrets and how we can‘t run from them. A slow burn, then very intense! With an open ending.
This was just all over the place and inconsistent. I could go the rest of my life without hearing/seeing “other mommy” ever again and it would not be enough.
Ok I‘ve officially read two of Malermans books and I disliked both. I can now say I am not a fan of his writing style. This story is told from a child‘s perspective and gets annoying because it‘s repetitive, sometimes you don‘t know if she‘s thinking something or saying it out loud, and best of all the ending sucks. I stepped away from this book thinking what the hell did I just read? The only bonus was it was a quick read. 👎🏼
