Lock Every Door
A BookBud Review
By Riley Sager
Finished 09-20-2020
Genre: Suspense
Basic Plot: Jules finds herself at a very interesting job offer after losing her career, her home and even her boyfriend. She is offered to live as an apartment sitter, paid to live in the lap of luxury in an apartment building she only dreamed about while reading a novel as a child with her now missing sister. The Bartholomew is offering Jules a new income, home and maybe even a closeness to someone she lost long ago, but there may be something very strange going on the building with it’s very private residents and Jules intends to find out.
Notable Quote(s):
“Doing good deeds--makes this rotten world just a little bit better.”
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐
Readability: 4/5
Plot Interest: 2/5
Creativity: 2/5
First things first, this was basically good. The plot was intriguing enough, but not extremely unique. The characters were relatable and interesting but not strongly mysterious. This is a guessable “thriller” for sure. That being said, the narration style and realism of plot are what drew me in to this story. The introduction to the situation is generic, woman finds herself jobless, homeless and having lost her significant other in one fell swoop. But it’s the way she get’s drawn in, her tragic backstory combined with a longing to feel close to the family she lost through the means of this building, that makes it a bit more intriguing because it’s fueled by more than just her need of a “new start” or money, even though she claims otherwise. There’s a realistic sense of skepticism towards the entire building from the protagonist as well as those surrounding her beyond the general thought of the building as just creepy. Overall, there’s just a better grasp on how to flow through this plot type from Sager. The narration style was strong and it’s not the type of book you’ll sit with and yell at the character to not go up the stairs.
I gave it 3 out of 5 because I do believe the writing was unique, but the story was not. It was interesting but not all that thrilling overall. Sager’s style though is wonderful. He even left this somewhat open ended but I finished this feeling satisfied regardless because in reality, you won’t always get all the answers. If he did make a sequel, I’d read it but I was happily intrigued by the way he wraps this book up already. This author did a great job making it feel real and is what really makes this a unique read.

Book 40 out of 50: Home Before Dark by Riley Sager
4.5 out of 5 stars
I hate to sound like a broken record because everyone out there is saying that "Riley Sager's books just keep getting better and better"...but Riley Sager's books just keep getting better and better. For me this one is tied with Lock Every Door, but I think that's merely a personal thing. I have SUCH an affinity for Rosemary's Baby. Although I do love The Amityville Horror as well. Ugh. The struggle. Anyway, this book was *chef's kiss*. Just the right amount of creepy without becoming cheesy. As well as keeping us guessing until the last 30-40 pages (which, I'm sorry but if you saw those twists coming you're a genius) and then blowing our minds. Riley, you'll always have a place in my spooky little heart.
in love in some way
