I had a really hard time with this book. I was expecting a thriller, not a weird slow burn romance.

This was defiantly a romance, but a weird one. If some man threatened me even vaguely, I wouldn't continue flirting and spending time with him.

I enjoyed the writing and would try the author again, this one just wasn't for me.

I have quickly become a huge fan of Jeneva Rose's writing, and YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE COME HERE might just be my favorite book from her yet! What a fun thriller -- perfect if you're trying to get out of a reading slump!

Fast paced thriller/horror/romance. Cheesy but suspenseful. Entertaining enough to keep me reading! Everyone is unreliable and something seems "off" about the whole town. Plenty of Jeneva Rose twists.

I have noticed that Jeneva's books have become a tad awkward. I did not understand the plot and there were many things no wrapped up in the end. This is not a series, so I found that odd. I loved The Perfect Marriage, but have not really enjoyed a book from her since.

I devoured this book in a few days, i feel in love with the plot of the storyline and I didn’t see that TWIST coming.. Jeanva Rose has easily become one of my favourite authors and I cant wait to see what her next book will be.

The twist and turns for this book had me biting my nails the entire time. I thought I had it figured out but Jeneva Rose said "Nope, think again." Jeneva is such a sweetheart and I love promoting her psychological thrillers.

The whole time I thought I had this book figured out, I was completely wrong. I liked the suspense and how it kept building. The budding romance, the small town secrets and trying to figure out what was in the basement had me turning the pages. The big twist did feel a bit forced at the end. I love Jeneva Rose books but this one was not my favorite. I would still recommend if you want a quick thriller.

Unfortunately, this book fell very flat for me. The descriptions were overused, and the plot was unrealistic. There was so much of the author telling, instead of showing, leaving the ending extremely predictable. Hoping for more from this author in her next book!

Grace takes a vacation to Wyoming in order to unwind from her work in New York. The ranch she chooses to visit is a very remote ranch, but she enjoys being so far away from everything. She is also attracted to Calvin, the ranch owner, who she feels has a close relationship with her. When Calvin begins to become obsessed with Grace, it soon becomes obvious that she is growing increasingly worried about her, especially when a sheriff shows up asking about a missing girl named Briana that was supposed to have stayed at the ranch before Grace arrived. Although he claims to not know her, does he really?

Thank you Netgalley and Blackstone Publishing for this ARC.

I really enjoyed the twist of this one! I thought I knew where it was going, but that ending was exciting. Very fun read.

Jeneva Rose's "You Shouldn't Have Come Here" presents an intriguing premise with elements of suspense and mystery that initially captivate the reader. The novel follows a protagonist who finds herself drawn into a web of secrets and danger after a chance encounter with a mysterious stranger. While the story holds promise, there are several aspects that prevent it from reaching its full potential.

One of the strengths of "You Shouldn't Have Come Here" lies in its atmospheric setting. Rose skillfully creates a sense of unease and tension, particularly in the isolated locations where much of the action takes place. The eerie ambiance adds to the overall suspense, making it a compelling read for fans of psychological thrillers.

However, where the novel falls short is in its execution of plot and character development. The pacing can be uneven, with moments of intense action followed by lulls in momentum that disrupt the flow of the narrative. Some plot twists feel predictable or forced, diminishing the impact of what could have been more surprising revelations.

Similarly, the characters, while initially intriguing, lack depth and fail to evolve significantly throughout the story. The protagonist's decisions sometimes feel inconsistent with her established motivations, making it difficult for readers to fully empathize or connect with her plight. Secondary characters, including the mysterious stranger, often remain enigmatic to the point of being underdeveloped.

The writing style in "You Shouldn't Have Come Here" is straightforward and accessible, which serves the fast-paced nature of the plot. However, it occasionally lacks the descriptive richness needed to fully immerse readers in the emotional and psychological depths of the characters' experiences.

In conclusion, "You Shouldn't Have Come Here" is a decent thriller with moments of suspense and intrigue that will appeal to readers looking for a quick, atmospheric read. While the novel offers a compelling premise and evocative setting, its uneven pacing and underdeveloped characters prevent it from achieving greatness. For those who enjoy psychological suspense with a hint of mystery, this book may still provide an entertaining escape, but it falls short of leaving a lasting impact.

An engaging read that I thoroughly enjoyed! Highly recommend and will purchase several physical and digital copies for library collections. Thank you!!

First, thank you Netgalley and the publisher for sending me the e-arc. I always have a blast with Jeneva Rose's writing but this one disappointed me a little. I thoroughly enjoyed the unexpected ending of this book. However, I felt like every wrong decision that is made in a bad horror movie happened in this book and I was constantly yelling don't do that! I look forward to what she comes out with next.

It was an okay read, but it definitely wasn’t memorable to me. There were too many things about the story and plot I didn’t like, and therefore it wasn’t memorable. I tried to enjoy it as much as I could, and there were definitely parts I did enjoy but sadly there weren’t enough moments I enjoyed to say I liked the book.

I didn't get a chance to download before the link expired. Read the title on another platform and gave it 3 stars. Love Jeneva!

it felt like a really slow book till the end and I think I really just needed more. I’m not always a fan when authors leave all the excitement for the very end, still, I can appreciate that there were many clues here and there that are connected nicely by the end.

I love Jeneva Rose, but this book was a miss for me. I was not expecting 90% of this book to be romance, and I did not love the twist. Excited to see what she writes in the future, though!

Suspenseful and full of twists and turns, You Shouldn't Have Come Here was a thoroughly enjoyable read that I would recommend to fans of Lucy Foley or Lisa Unger. This was my first Jeneva Rose book, and it won't be my last. I loved Grace as a main character. She felt very relatable and easy to care about. The setting of Wyoming was really interesting as I don't normally see something like that in thrillers I read. I found the pacing good, it was slow until it picked up in the middle, and I enjoyed that.

Thank you to NetGalley and to the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I love this author but unfortunately this book just didn’t work for me. I pushed through hoping it would get better but no such luck.

The characters in You Shouldn't Have Come Here are brilliantly crafted, each with their own secrets and motivations that add layers of complexity to the story. I found myself completely immersed in their lives, rooting for them, doubting them, and ultimately, fearing for their safety as the tension escalated.

One of the standout aspects of this novel is Rose's ability to create an atmosphere of palpable tension and unease. Every shadowy corner and whispered conversation drips with suspense, keeping you on the edge of your seat and frantically turning pages late into the night.
