The Neighbors

“The Neighbors” started off strong. The premise was intriguing and the characters were fleshed out and interesting. That's as far as the praise goes unfortunately.

Over the course of the book, there is a jumble of timelines and perspectives without any indication, making the story choppy and hard to understand. It was as if the author attempted to give us back story without knowing where they wanted the book to lead. Most of it was unnecessary. Then at around the 80% mark, all the action happened so quickly that I got whiplash. It barely even made sense. Overall, this book was boring with an anticlimactic ending.

2.5/5 stars.
