We used to live here by Marcus Kliewer was heavily recommended in my horror book group on FB and I was like.. DANG I gotta try this book! Lucky for me, libby had an audio version with virtually no wait time... GAME ON
So we are introduced to Charlie and her girlfriend Eve and the house they just bought to flip. What they don't expect is for a family turning up on their doorstep asking to have a look around as Thomas, the father, used to live in the house as a child... Eve lets them in but it doesn't take long for her to wish she never opened the front door...
Things get weird when Eve lets them in, seeing things that aren;t there and they don't seem to get the hint it's time to go. Eve has issues and when Charlie goes missing.... She can't hold onto her grip on reality...
The book comes from the story of Eve and the house and cuts into old police reports and podcasts that cover Mandela effects and things changing on people with no explanations. I usually hate not knowing the why at the end of the book or what was real and what wasn't but this book... It worked for me. Not knowing if it was supernatural or if Eve lost her grip on reality.
I was creeped the F out and it was one heck of a mind F!!!! The book had such sinister undertones and the audio really took it to another level for me.
5 stars!!!
