REVIEW OF THE NEIGHBORS BY ANIA AHLBORN

Title: The Neighbors
Authors:  Ania Ahlborn
Publisher:
Thomas & Mercer

Date Published: 
November 27, 2012
Purchase Book:
Amazon, Barnes & Noble


About the Book:


Everything—his childhood, his education, and the girl of his dreams—to look after his alcoholic mother. But enough is enough, and now he’s determined to get out and live his life. That means trading the home he grew up in for a rented room in the house of an old childhood friend— both of which are in sorry shape.
The only thing worse than Drew’s squalid new digs and sullen new roommate is the envy he feels for the house next door: a picture-perfect suburban domicile straight out of Norman Rockwell, with a couple of happy householders to match. But the better acquainted he gets with his new neighbors—especially the sweet and sexy Harlow Ward—the more he suspects unspeakable darkness beyond the white picket fence.

She earned a bachelor’s degree in English from the University of New Mexico, enjoys gourmet cooking, baking, drawing, traveling, movies, and exploring the darkest depths of the human (and sometimes inhuman) condition.

My Thoughts:


What a great psychological thriller. It was full of characters who were twisted, disturbed and they kept me engaged and interested. The main character Harlow was unpredictable showing up when you never expected it and the other characters complimented her personality well. This is one of the best books that I have read this year and I definitely will read her next book The Shuddering due out early 2013. A great read and highly recommended.

  13. I just finished this book and I LOVED it! Great thriller, although a bit warped in a way (cannot say more without giving away a key part of the story). I'd recommend it highly. Thanks for your recommendation.
