My Review‼️🪶

Blurb;

The past isn't just haunting her — it's hunting her.

Addison Lowe knew her mother-in-law despised her, but inheriting Barb's massive estate after her death feels less like closure and more like a trap. Barb's hoarded rooms aren't just filled with clutter—they're filled with secrets. And it's Addison's job to unearth them while Luke grieves the loss of the mother he could never let go of.

But Luke grows stranger with every box they open—restless, secretive, cruel in ways Addison has never seen. And the house itself seems to breathe with Barb's presence. Ivy claws through the windows. A murder of crows drops trinkets at her feet. Dolls stare from the shadows, labeled with names Addison doesn't recognize—until she does. One doll bears the name Cassidy Warren, a girl who vanished years ago. And the more Addison uncovers, the more Barb's legacy seems tied to the streak of "bad luck" that has haunted Rockside Bay for decades.

The deeper Addison digs, the clearer it becomes: some secrets were meant to stay buried. And the husband she thought she knew may be hiding the darkest one of all...

My Review;

This book drew me in from the very beginning, & it's blurb read very promising. It tells the story of Addison & Luke, who travel to Oregon to purge Luke's mother's house, following the death of Luke's mother; Barb Lowe.

During the time purging the house, Addison discovers creepy porcelain dolls, along with black bird feathers, & things start to get more creepy when she discovers one of herself,...

I don't want to say more about the story itself as don't want to give any spoilers, but the book itself, being set in America, wasn't what I'd call an 'easy-read'; it's one that you have to stick with throughout, but I'm glad I did.

Based on a rating of 1-10, where 10 is the highest, I would give this book a rating of 6. It told a good story throughout, though I feel it would've been more enjoyable had it been an easier read.
