To be completely honest, I’m not sure how to feel about The Safe Place. Initially, the story was a little slow for me, but it picked up quickly and probably from the 20% mark until about the 80% mark, I enjoyed it, and then I feel it kind of went off the rails at the end.
From the synopsis of the book and the clues planted along the way, I thought it was going to be a really creepy story, and as someone who hates anything scary, I guess I’m glad it really wasn’t, but I thought it was going to be a very different story than what I read. I think I was hoping I would really be shocked by the twists in the story, but I just found them to be strange and rushed when you got to them. I think the best word to summarize this book is strange, strange characters, strange house, and strange storyline!
I think if you are to read this book, it is best to go in blind and just let the craziness take over.
