Review for "No One's Home" by D.M. Pulley

Picture
No One's HomeNo One's Home by D.M. Pulley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

So, in many ways, I feel like I should just point you in the direction of the reviews I've done for the other books written by this author; the accolades/praises are all the same, as far as how much I enjoyed this book. However, for some reason, I wasn't as blown away with this one as I was with the others? And I am a little annoyed with the fact that I can't figure out WHY that is.

Plot: The plot is good... in typical Pulley-style, a ghostly story is woven, back & forth, through time and through the 3rd person viewpoints of (in this book, several) the characters... into this well-thought-out tale of murder, ghosts, lies, lavish lifestyles, and history- loads of history. And, just like "The Dead Key" and "The Unclaimed Victim", this one ALSO was inspired by some true events.

Characters: I think THIS is where I ended up feeling not so enamored? So, the MAIN-main character is the teenage son, Hunter; and his parents (Margot & Myron) are these upper-middle-class, distracted, and all around- crappy parents. They're also not as fully fleshed out as I tend to prefer, considering they DO PLAY a pretty big role in the book. Maybe I was just having an off day when I read it? IDK. I just felt that his mom gets too much of a pass, without a fuller backstory to make her redemption arc make sense. Again, I'm not too sure why I felt a little less than thrilled with this newest release from one of my favorite authors... but that's my best guess as to why.

Overall: This was still an engrossing tale that once the pieces started coming together and we learned more and more about this *home*, I just couldn't put it down. I read it in one sitting- as is usual with books from this author... and, as with the rest of her literary contributions, I highly recommend this one, as well.

    Why do reviews?

    Well, I own over 6000 books.
    Most of them are non-fiction, since I have an obsession with knowledge.
    But oh, how I love a good story.
    I've decided to devote an entire Blog, just for books.
    ​
    Here, you will find book reviews for Fiction, in almost every genre.
    I'll also be sharing reviews for the too many to count
    Nonfiction books I am constantly dumping into my head.
    As well as Announcements etc. for New Releases
    from fellow authors.

    How do I decide what rating... 

    For Fiction books, it's either a 5, 4, or a 3-star. That's it. If it doesn't qualify for at least a  3-star rating, I will NOT post that kind of a review. I either REALLY loved/liked it and it was written well, regardless if it wasn't something "up my alley" so-to-speak, OR it was okay, but could have used some more details, or fix the plot holes, etc. I WILL NOT rate low for spelling and/or grammar, editing mistakes. If they are plentiful, I will send the author a polite email to let them know. Hopefully the author will listen and address the problems.

    For Nonfiction, sorry, but here I have to be a bit more discerning. I will rate 1-5 stars, according to the layout of the information, the quality of the information, as well as any editing mistakes, etc. I personally feel that a Nonfiction book is there to provide information, and if it is not delivered in a clear and concise manner, too much confusion will ensue and cause potentially horrible embarrassments or even fatal mistakes.
