Mini Review: The House Across the Lake by Riley Sager




2**


Well, that was something, and I don't mean that in a good way. If you've read my reviews for a while, you know I hate to write negative ones, but I really can't find much to redeem this book in my eyes. The premise really intrigued me, and I will say, the setting was well illustrated, but boy did that turn into a slog! It felt very repetitive very quickly, and then the "twist" came and the eye rolling began. I can't even tell you, without spoiling it, but if you're looking for clever plotting and logic, look elsewhere. I'm afraid, most of Riley Sager's books have not lived up to the hype for me, often feeling too outlandish in their resolution, with big, gaping potholes of logic flaws peppered throughout. So, I think this will probably be my last one by the author. Onward and upward, a new year of reading is just around the corner!
