Your House Is on Fire, Your Children All Gone by Stefan Kiesbye
4.0
⭐4/5⭐
This book it's creepy as hell. I'm not sure you will be scared of this, but certainly you'll feel uneasy all the time, and I think that it's a incredible way to create a story, I'm really impress about Stefan Kiesbye because of that. The anxious feeling through all the book, knowing something bad would happend, but haven't knowing what, is the gemm of this tale.
I loved so much the spooky village vibes, knowing a lot about the children (the chapters are narrated by them), but also from the adults of Hemmersmoor. I belive my favourites characters are Linde and Anke, individually and their friendship and hatered relationship.

Christian was an intresting character too, at the bigining, what at the end was kind of boring.
Maybe spoiler (?
The only part I really don't appreciated, was a few pages before the end, because I HATE THAT FUC*KING THING AS A PLOT TWIST. THAT IT'S NOT A PLOT TWIST, SO MEN (because usualy are men that use it), STOP IT.
Without that part, the book was amazing and I enjoyed it a lot.
