Memories of Tyler's childhood visits to grandpa were so horrific that spending one single night in that house in order to claim his inheritance caused his stomach to turn. If not for the pressure from his ex-wife and his mother he would have said "good riddance" and walked away. Instead, Tyler thought surely he could spend one night, put his demons to rest, leave in the morning and then have the god-forsaken place destroyed. Obviously this did not go as planned for Tyler.
The predictability ends there. Tyler's grandfather was a master at creating hand-carved, imaginative little worlds inside of glass bottles. The detail was exquisite. These bottles, family history, humanity, magic and escape....these elements weave through the story like weeds in a garden.
The premise is very unique and interesting. This is not your typical "one last night in a haunted house" story. Not one little bit. A slow burn yes...but then the dread really sets in and you're trapped, so to speak, in the story. Thank you #netgalley for sharing this ARC in exchange for my honest review. #Bottled
