Can’t Wait Wednesday – LOCK EVERY DOOR by Riley Sager
“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, which encourages fellow bloggers to spotlight upcoming releases that we’re excited about. It is a meme that I have loved participating in for over a year now, but as Jill is no longer actively posting, from now on I’ll just be linking to Can’t Wait Wednesday, hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings, which is a spinoff of the original WoW meme.

My selection for this week is LOCK EVERY DOOR by Riley Sager. I loved both Final Girls and The Last Time I Lied, so I can’t wait to get my hands on Riley Sager’s next book. Lock Every Door sounds like it’s going to be filled with suspense and downright eerie with all of those mysterious disappearances.
LOCK EVERY DOOR by Riley Sager
Publication Date: July 2, 2019
From Goodreads:
No visitors. No nights spent away from the apartment. No disturbing the other residents, all of whom are rich or famous or both. These are the only rules for Jules Larsen’s new job as an apartment sitter at the Bartholomew, one of Manhattan’s most high-profile and mysterious buildings. Recently heartbroken and just plain broke, Jules is taken in by the splendor of her surroundings and accepts the terms, ready to leave her past life behind.
As she gets to know the residents and staff of the Bartholomew, Jules finds herself drawn to fellow apartment sitter Ingrid, who comfortingly, disturbingly reminds her of the sister she lost eight years ago. When Ingrid confides that the Bartholomew is not what it seems and the dark history hidden beneath its gleaming facade is starting to frighten her, Jules brushes it off as a harmless ghost story . . . until the next day, when Ingrid disappears.
Searching for the truth about Ingrid’s disappearance, Jules digs deeper into the Bartholomew’s dark past and into the secrets kept within its walls. Her discovery that Ingrid is not the first apartment sitter to go missing at the Bartholomew pits Jules against the clock as she races to unmask a killer, expose the building’s hidden past, and escape the Bartholomew before her temporary status becomes permanent.

Oh yes!! This does sound appealing. It’s quite a scary thought to be left alone in a strange place like that…
Hope you’re having a good day!
Right? I agree!
I haven’t read his other books, but I like the sound of this one!
If you like dark, twisty reads, he’s is a good author to try.
I’m definitely looking forward to this one myself, Suzanne! Can you believe I haven’t read any of his books, but I own them all? I need to get with it!
I think the first book got some mixed reviews, but even people I know who weren’t big fans of that one really loved the second book. I’ll be curious to see what you think of them.
I’ve never read Riley Sager before, but wow I’m going to have to read this. Great choice, thanks for sharing😁

I was actually just wondering if Sager had another book coming out!
Same. I was thinking about it, searched on Goodreads, and flailed as soon as I saw this one!
