Jen was odd and aloof when it came to the things happening to her. But after finishing the book, I think it’s more that I just didn’t like them. At first, I thought it was just the typical Horror Character Disconnection – where you refuse to let yourself like the characters because you don’t know who will survive and who won’t, so you refuse to get attached. I don’t know.? I felt really detached from them and their stories. It wasn’t scary and despite the fast pace and moments of intrigue, it was an overall boring read with a disappointing ending that left me feeling unsatisfied. Which, with Nic Sheff’s past, I guess that isn’t so surprising however, it was disappointing. This book was basically one giant metaphor for addiction. Based on the cover, title and synopsis, I was gearing up for something creepy and spooky that would make me want to sleep with the lights on. Harmony House was one of my most anticipated books of the year. Stop RIGHT HERE if you don’t want to be spoiled! Because I need to rant and I can’t rant without spoilers. PLEASE NOTE: THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS.
