What a wild story, but I mostly enjoyed it
4/5
The new house 16-year-old Tom moves into with his mother, stepfather and stepsister has some interesting features including the words “Help me” written over and over on his bedroom wall. Then Tom meets Amy at school and discovers she lived in the house before him. A page turning YA mystery that doesn‘t quite hang together, but still lots of fun.

Tons of hidden messages and twisty turns! Blew through this one, the small chapters set a great pace!
When Tom moves into a new house he notices a few holes on the outside of 2 bedroom doors. When he discovers he fit a lock, his mind races on what was kept inside… or from a escaping.
This was a really twisted psychological read. Super fast read with a storyline you‘re thinking couldn‘t be possible and when you think you‘ve got it figured out think again! #bookspin @TheAromaofBooks
This is one of those creepy twisted thrillers that you can‘t put down! The opening line is, “Home is where the hate is.” Now if that doesn‘t scare you…😱! Tom is in high school when he meets “the new girl” who used to live in his house. And things go downhill from there. I still have chills just thinking about it. Not for the faint of heart, it‘s a novel that will resonate for a long time!
Interesting premise, but underwhelming execution. An okay YA thriller with good twists & some tension, but lacked a realistic feel. Decent protagonist with traumatic past & decent depiction of OCD. The adult characters were awkward caricatures who were fairly worthless. They were either apathetic or built with extreme hyperbole and did not feel realistic. A fun ride & quick, entertaining read, but definite lack of logic.
