*THE MUST-READ GOTHIC THRILLER OF 2021*

'I haven't read anything this exciting since Gone Girl' - STEPHEN KING

'The new face of literary dark fiction' - SARAH PINBOROUGH

'Books like this don't come around too often' - JOANNE HARRIS

This is the story of a murderer. A stolen child. Revenge. This is the story of Ted, who lives with his daughter Lauren and his cat Olivia in an ordinary house at the end of an ordinary street.

All these things are true. And yet some of them are lies.

You think you know what's inside the last house on Needless Street. You think you've read this story before. In the dark forest at the end of Needless Street, something lies buried. But it's not what you think...

wow wow wow

Was für ein Buch... Man fühlt sich wie in einer Waschmaschine, wird langsam gespült und dann immer mehr geschüttelt und es geht hin und her und immer rasanter und schneller, Twists über Twists und noch mehr. Man denkt, es ergibt nun alles Sinn und dann kommen noch mehr Twists und noch mehr. Bis zum Ende durch. Ich bin froh, dass ich nach den ersten Seiten, als es slow anfing, weitergelesen habe, sonst wäre mir ein Sahnestück entgangen. 5 🌟 sind noch zu wenig dafür. Ich kann nicht eine einzige Silbe verlieren, worum das Buch handelt, denn das würde alles vorwegnehmen und spoilern will ich auf keinen Fall. Man muss sich auf eine rasante Achterbahnfahrt gefasst machen, wo man nie weiss, wo der nächste Looping ist. Was für ein Meisterwerk! LESEN!!! Größte Empfehlung von mir!

Unfortunately I saw coming what was the main plot of the book. Therefore I did not get into the book and I didn't feel the horror/thriller part.

I had difficulties with the writing style, to be honest. Usually, when I notice that something is difficult for me to read, I put it away, but I just couldn’t: I needed to know what happens next. If you like a book with thousands of turns and twists and where you never know exactly WHAT is going on, this is for you.

Der Anfang war noch ziemlich unterhaltsam, ich mag unzuverlässige Erzähler sehr gern Ab ca Seite 100 (oder schon etwas früher) hatte ich einen Verdacht bezüglich der Protagonisten Ab Seite 150 wurde das Buch für mich leider immer anstrengender bzw konnte ich mich einfach nicht mehr für die Geschichte begeistern. Deshalb habe ich vieles überflogen und übersprungen und dann nur noch die letzten 50 Seiten wieder aufmerksamer gelesen. Irgendwie hat die Idee durchaus etwas sehr Spannendes, aber ich bin einfach kein Fan von Thrillern. Das war leider nicht mein Fall.

I was sceptical through the first have of the book. But let me tell you: It picks up after the 200 page count. So, yes this was quite a slow burn for me because for the first 100 pages I didn’t really understand what was going on. Then it took some time for me to get into the story but after that 200 pages I couldn’t put it down! I agree with everybody though who says you should know nothing about the book before you start it because anything might spoil the twist(s). Also I really enjoyed the writing (after I got over the confusing part in the beginning :D) So, I did. think a lot about how I rate this book. Because of the struggles I had at the beginning. If I didn’t know that other people really enjoyed the second half and felt similar to me in the beginning I probably would have stopped reading after the first 100 pages. But I am so glad that I didn’t! Hence my confusion about the rating. But not often I am so captivated by a book as I was with this one in the end. So, it might be more of a 3,5 stars for me overall but I would definitely recommend reading this book if you are into dark thrillers (would really categorise this as horror)!

This book was all that I didn't expect and more. It made me underline so many lines, question so many situations, giggle & cry, being disturbed and delighted. Every word about the story would be too much information. You have to dive into it without knowing anything. I loved it!!

Give this trip a chance. No matter what you think you know or can predict. Forget it. You will be wrong. Because the actual horror is a lot more real than you think.
