i definitely enjoyed this one more than strange houses. it was good and had plot twists that made sense while also keeping the readers guessing. i feel like we got a better sense of the characters and their internal motivations this book than we did in strange houses. the motivations also didn't seem overly far-fetched and were generally believable. enjoyed it and thought it was a fun read!!

Why were they so mad that one of the applicants was filming? Is how they do everything a secret or somthing? Or is that not allowed in general(i guess this is the awnser but idk)? (Is it obvious that i know nothing about things like this?🤣)

i went into this book super excited and the first half was really enjoyable and entertaining! however, as the story progressed it felt rushed, and the plot became more and more convoluted. new people and characters kept being introduced in quick succession which made it hard to keep people straight in my head. the characters also felt very shallow and had little to no personality. it was like a matryoshka doll of nefarious plans and at some point, we have to be reasonable and say hey too much is happening. it literally became hard to follow the plot and also suspend my disbelief. i think the first half was great but unfortunately the second half just did not follow through in a satisfying way. i've heard his other book strange pictures is better and i'm excited to give it a try because i really did think the beginning of this was super interesting and a wonderful idea.

i am DEVOURING this book!! so good so far and i love the inclusion of the floor plans. it feels so eerie and unsettling and yet nothing awful has been connected with the house so far.
