I have managed to read 1 book throughout these months and want to let you know what I think.

The Tenant

Author: Freida McFadden

Number of pages: 344

Blurb:

Blake Porter is riding high, until he's not. Fired abruptly from his job as a VP of marketing and unable to make the mortgage payments on the new brownstone he shares with his fiancée, he's desperate to make ends meet.

Enter Whitney. Beautiful, charming, down-to-earth, and looking for a room to rent. She's exactly what Blake's looking for. Or is she?

Because something isn't quite right. The neighbors start treating Blake differently. The smell of decay permeates his home, no matter how hard he scrubs. Strange noises jar him awake in the middle of the night. And soon Blake fears someone knows his darkest secrets...

Danger lives right at home, and by the time Blake realizes it, it'll be far too late. The trap is already set.

My Opinion:

Where do I start? Well this book took me months to read and it was so slow until 100 (ish) pages to the end when there is a twist which was unexpected in my opinion.

Would I read it again? No!

I was so bored at the beginning and needed more from the beginning the fact that the last 100 pages took me two days to get through because that was the interesting part otherwise it was dull.

Star Rating: 2/5
