We Used to Live Here

By: Daniel Hurst

Narrated by: Adam Goodwin, Deirdra Whelan

Every house has secrets. But not all of them stay buried forever . . .

When the Burgess family move into their "forever" home, it seems like they are set for many happy years together at their new address. Steph and Grant, along with their children, Charlie and Amelia, settle into their new surroundings quickly. But then they receive an unexpected visit from a couple who claim to have lived in the house before.

They wish to come in and have a look around for old time's sake. Seeming pleasant and plausible, Steph invites them in. And that's when things begin to change. It's not long after the peculiar visit when the homeowners begin to find evidence of the past all around their new home as they redecorate. But it's the discovery of a hidden wall containing several troubling messages that really sends Steph into a spin.

After digging into the history of the house a little more, she learns it is connected to a shocking crime from the past. A crime that still remains unsolved . . .

Narration prevented completion

I just couldn’t get through the narration. I had to stop after chapter four. The female read fast and without pause or punctuation. The male talked fast and with a mouth full of marbles. If the story was any good I couldn’t tell. Sorry I just couldn’t

Okay

It was okay but not as good as his other books. The female narrator was very good but the male narrator mumbled too much and spoke too fast, especially when heard over my speakers. It was annoying, like a steady grumble.

If You A fan of Daniel Hurst This one you have to get this had Had More Cat chase the mouse till the end of book

Not His Best but Still Entertaining

I appreciated that this time around Hurst tried to add a little bit of horror elements but his genre is mostly domestic thrillers and he couldn’t help adding an affair trope storyline, which was so unnecessary. I wanted more of that mystery, creepy vibe. The ending was a dud. But the epilogue gave the book a little boost in my rating.

The male narrator was so annoyingly bad.

Unexpected ending

I usually love this authors books and this one didn’t disappoint. It has a great storyline along with great narrating with a very unexpected ending that is shocking.

The male voice ruined everything

How can that be possible that a narrator spoils it all. I liked the story though.

Meh

story just never got better. I had hoped for something exciting and it definitely fell short.

Put this one on your list!!!

I don’t want to spoil anything, so I will just suggest to add this one to your reading list. The book is set in England, so the accents of the narrator added to the story. This has been one of the best books I have read!!!!

Seriously Didn’t See The Ending Until it was RIGHT THERE

This probably one of Hurst’s shorter books but for me it packed a punch. I seriously did not see the ending coming until it was right there! Kept my attention and thoroughly entertained me.

I didn't see that coming.

We Use to Live Here was a quick read and mostly engaging. The twists were shocking and the ending was great! The characters were somewhat on the one dimensional side, but overall I would recommend this book.
