About this audiobook
Carrie meets American Horror Story meets The Shining in this terrifying YA horror novel from the author of Tweak and Schizo.
Something’s not right in Beach Haven.
Jen Noonan’s father thinks a move to Harmony House is the key to salvation, but to everyone who has lived there before, it is a portal to pure horror.
After her alcoholic mother’s death, Jen’s father cracked. He dragged Jen to a dilapidated old manor on the shore of New Jersey to start their new lives—but Jen can tell that the place has an unhappy history. She can feel it the same way she can feel her anger flowing out of her, affecting the world in strange ways she can’t explain.
But Harmony House is more than just a creepy old estate. It’s got a chilling past—and the more Jen discovers its secrets, the more the house awakens. Visions of a strange boy who lived in the house long ago follow Jen wherever she goes, and her father’s already-fragile sanity disintegrates before her eyes. As the forces in the house join together to terrorize Jen, she must find a way to escape the past she didn’t know was haunting her—and the mysterious and terrible power she didn’t realize she had.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Reading the synopsis and seeing the cover is what prompted me to pick this up. I can't say I was disappointed exactly but I felt it didn't deliver what it had promised. I think when an author can make you "live" in the feelings of the main character...they have succeed in part of their main goal. Nic Sheff accomplished that. I did feel almost unbearably sorry for this young girl. She had lost her mother and was left with this religiously fanatic of a father whose answer for everything was prayer and more prayer...and to what "God" I'm not really sure. As for the story itself...it was rather strange at times and often bordered on the bizarre and unusual... it just was not very scary or creepy and very little was said about the events that happened before the move to Harmony House.
