Solid demonic novel

I thought this was much more compelling than The Meadows (another novel of Clarke's). Even predictable elements came with thrilling little twists that kept me engaged. Tidy ending and narration that doesn't distract.

CW: abuse, sexual assault, pedophilia

Good story

The lady in the story really gets me upset but this is a good listen. Not totally scary but a little creepy. Thanks

wouldn't read again if I had the chance.

first of all the narrator was completely terrible. that made me almost not listen to the story at all. besides that the story was decent. had a good scary side to it. it took a little while until the good stuff picked up. overall the book was a strong 3. narrator a strong 0. sounds like she was tired and bored of the story. And her voice was so annoying. and slow. yuck

meh

This book would have been better if I read it myself. the narrator isn't bad, but not really good either.

Loved this book from beginning to end

Excellent book! The perfect mix of thriller and horror. Creepy, but in a good way!

Engrossing and fast paced!

I listened to this book in just a few days during work and it was awesome. Creepy, interesting with just that supernatural touch that I enjoy the hell out of. The narrator was fantastic and kept me listening. Im very happy I spent a credit on this. I read the horror subreddit religiously to find books I haven’t heard of. This is one of the few that I have truly enjoyed. Most are spent word vomiting page after page of descriptions that bore me silly. Take a chance and get this audiobook.

Chilling, heart-aching, paranormal horror-suspense

Having read Clarke’s other books, I was intrigued by the storyline for The Neighbor, which appeared to be a slight departure from her other books. I was not disappointed–This book delivers through a skilled and intimate narration which left me cringing and near tears at times. I was only able to listen to it in 20 minute increments–yes, it is that intense. I could literally feel the horror and anxiety of the lead character as she fought the demons–both personal and literal.

If you are looking for a thrill ride with twists and turns that will keep you guessing and on the edge of your own sanity then The Neighbor fits the bill.

👍👍👍

This was a really great book! It has the normal ghost story theme but has aspect that set it apart from other typical ghost stories. The narrator did a fantastic job overall and put emotion in her voice where it was needed, making it an exciting listen.
I could hardly put this book down, always wanting to know what happens next. Definitely one of my favorite books.

Loved it!

I honestly think this is one of the best books I’ve ever read! I will be looking for more by this author

INTRIGUING STORY

Had this book in my library for a little while. Had I know how good it was going to be, I would have read much earlier. It was one of those books that was hard to put down. Just read it!
