A review by cameojade
The House Across the Lake by Riley Sager

2.0

so this book is slooooow at the beginning but then it picks up and it’s this very detailed, intense thriller that had me actually hooked and wanting to finish to see what happens……and then with about 100 pages left things start going in a complete opposite direction than the first 200 and some have been heading. there’s not one but THREE insane twists within those last 100 pages that had me flipping back to the beginning pages to see if there’s any clues that this off the wall nonsense would be happening. there’s none. I’m giving 2 stars solely for those first 200 or so pages because the storytelling got very intriguing and pulled me in. If I’m rating the last 100 pages….you’re lucky I finished reading this. Like whatever you think is happening as you read is definitely 100% not what actually happens.
