A House at the Bottom of a Lake

This book was pretty short, but I enjoyed it. It's definitely got some mixed reviews. It seems very polarizing!

Plot Details
James and Amelia agree to go on a unique first date - canoeing on a lake. But then they find what appears to be a secret spot... a smaller lake with a house submerged in it. Finding it very strange, they decide to check it out. But what happens when they do?

My Thoughts
As mentioned, it seems there are a lot of people who really enjoyed this book, and a lot of people who didn't or were very unsatisfied at the ending. Honestly, I could see there being a sequel. The book was interesting, and definitely kept you reading as well as guessing how everything would play out in the end. I enjoyed reading about James and Amelia's emotions and thoughts as they explored the house, and I thought they were well-written characters. The only thing I really didn't like were the unanswered questions the story left you with. I felt like there was a lot more that could be told, but I can also appreciate that the author left it up to the reader's interpretation.

If you are interested in a quick read that injects a bit of thoughtful mystery into your head, I'd recommend it!
