thistle_bitch commented on fichannie's review of Don't Let Him In
While this wasn’t my favorite Lisa Jewell book I’ve ever read, it was easy reading and ultimately enjoyable enough. The twists were all incredibly predictable and I fear I knew exactly where this book was heading along the way, though I still wanted to see it reach its natural conclusion. With its large cast of characters and frequent perspective shifts, I can understand why some readers found the novel confusing as it progressed, though I was able to keep track of everything myself. I just found it fundamentally a bit lackluster. It did make me even more angry at men and the state of (heterosexual) dating than I already was before, which is saying something, as someone with my background 💀
I think if you have nothing else to read and this ends up in your path, it’s fine and will do the trick, but there’s nothing particularly special or groundbreaking about it either. Lisa Jewell has other books that are far more interesting and compelling.

"Like any city dweller newly alone in the dark countryside, Etain realized that she suddenly believed in ghosts."
Entirely too real. Me in my comfort zones of apartments and dense urban environments? Certified tough guy, ain't afraid of no ghosts. Me anywhere sparely populated or even just in a free standing house without multiple nearby neighbors? Immediately creeping myself out over every little thing, not taking ANY chances and yet surely about to meet my paranormal demise.

Never read the Goosebumps books as a kid, as I’ve always been the biggest scaredy cat, especially of the dark. But I can see why these were, and still are, such a hit with young readers! A clever plot with a good amount of suspense that can be read fairly quickly. But yes, I did need to read this only during the day and not at night because I remain a giant scaredy cat.
