3.5/5⭐️

I recently listened to House of Glass on audio and enjoyed the experience. The “Dear Constance” letters added a unique and intriguing layer to the narrative, effectively drawing me deeper into the story. The cast of suspicious characters kept me guessing, and while I appreciated the plot twists, I found many of them somewhat predictable.

One downside was the pacing—some sections felt unnecessarily drawn out, which slightly detracted from the overall momentum. That said, the conclusion was satisfying, tying up all loose ends in a way that felt complete and deliberate.

Overall, House of Glass is a solid, entertaining thriller that balances mystery and suspense with a touch of emotional depth. It’s worth a listen for fans of the genre!
