Welcome to Litsy!

4.5 ⭐️ I LOVE Sarah Pinborough books.

More horror-lite than some of her others, but so good. Husband and wife move to the country after the wife wakes from a 6month long coma. She thinks the house is haunted - husband thinks she‘s crazy. It‘s dual POV and the twists actually made me mad, but in a good way.

Emily was in a coma for 4 months following an accident & to aid her recovery somewhere quiet, she agrees to move from London to 'Larkin Lodge', a house on the Devon moors. She hopes that this will give her marriage to husband Freddie a fresh start, but when they arrive, far from the pretty country home on the website, the house is shrouded in mist & inside the house is either unbearably hot or achingly cold.

Hoping for a fresh start, Emily & Freddie move from the city to the English moors. But Larkin Lodge isn‘t a welcoming house… it‘s not long before they‘re bickering over the thermostat, open windows & odd smells. The house isn‘t the only one with past secrets weighing heavily on the present. An original twist on a traditional haunted house story, I found every reason to keep listening! Great performance & I loved the raven interludes! Really fun!

'We Live Here Now' provides a different type of haunting. I won't give away the twist at the end, but there definitely is one. The book was atmospheric and tense throughout. I think this might be my favorite book by Pinborough. There is dual narration that works well. A male narrator for the MMC, and a female for FMC. 4 stars.
Thanks to NetGalley and MacMillan Audio for the ARC.
