98: Home Before Dark by Riley Sager

98: Home Before Dark by Riley Sager


In Episode 98, Gen and Jette discuss their latest book club book, Home Before Dark by Riley Sager. It’s our first time discussing a thriller and we had a grand spooky time. Sager’s story within a story keeps you guessing right until the very end, making for a great #IcedCoffeeRead this summer.


Notes

The snake pit that Jette mentions in Manitoba is called the Narcisse Snake Dens. It’s exactly what it sounds like! If you’re not terrified of snakes, check out some of the videos on their website.

The Grange House that was the first home of the Art Gallery of Ontario is definitely haunted. The website doesn’t mention that it’s haunted, but as former employees, we can assure you that it is.

We had a bit of fun telling our own personal ghost stories. Now we want to know: do you believe in ghosts? Tell us all your ghostly encounters in the comments or DM us on Instagram!

For more spooky content, listen to our episode on mysteries and thrillers.

Our next episode we’ll be talking about one of Bookstagram/BookTok’s favourite books, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reed.
