Why read it?

1 author picked Our House as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Gone Girl started the domestic suspense trend and showed us that suspense can be driven by family/household dynamics. Louise Candlish takes this to another level in Our House when the main character comes home to find another family moving into her house.

From Sarah's list on for fans of Gone Girl.
