Description: When six book influencers take a weekend getaway to connect with their fellow creators, it’s meant to be a chance to relax, collaborate, and discuss all of the books they love. But from the start, something’s clearly amiss.

From the host’s mysterious absence and an unexpected guest to an odd occurrence in town and the strange and worrisome behavior of the neighbors, what starts out as an innocent and lively vacation quickly becomes a weekend filled with terror. And when one of the group members believes they see something horrifying at the house next door, their carefully laid plans begin to unravel.

Drawn into a mystery that runs far deeper and is more sinister than they could’ve imagined—and surrounded by those who refute their story—the group struggles to unearth the truth about the house and the couple next door before it’s too late. As new questions and shocking revelations surface, the group must decide if they can trust each other—not only with their safety in the house but also with their lives entirely.

Listeners’ worst nightmares come to life in this terrifying new thriller that tests the limits of friendship, explores the power of social media influence, digs into the depths of trust, and examines the desperate and dangerous lengths of obsession.


My Thoughts: This is my second audiobook by Kiersten Modglin and she is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. You'll never know I'm here is about a group of book influencers who all met online but never in person. They plan a great in what is supposed to be a cozy little town that is halfway for them all. They are all so excited to meet one another and do some collaborations together. Shortly after arriving, Lena starts to experience and feel that something is not right but she cannot figure out what.

This is such a great book with a blindsiding turn of events. The characters are so much fun and it's hard to not relate to them if you are a social media book influencer. My two favorite characters were Lena and Memphis. I was really hoping for some more relationship development with them.

The ending of the book definitely surprised me. I wasn't expecting it and how Kiersten Modglin came up with it is beyond me.

The narrator Stacy Gonzalez did a wonderful job in telling the story and really takes you on a wild ride. You can feel the emotions and especially fear of the characters come alive through her telling.

Rating: 5 - if you are a lover of mysteries and thrillers then this is definitely a must read for you. I highly recommend that you add it to your TBR.

Many thanks to Dreamscape Media and Netgalley for this review copy. This is my honest opinion.
