I Remember You by Yrsa Sigurdardóttir Review


I Remember You won the Icelandic Crime Fiction Award and also was nominated for The Glass Key Award. In this terrifying tale, three friends set to work renovating a rundown house in a remote, totally isolated location. But they soon realize they are not as alone as they thought. Something wants them to leave. Meanwhile, in a nearby town, a young doctor investigating the suicide of an elderly woman discovers that she was obsessed with his vanished son. When the two stories collide, the shocking truth becomes horribly clear. In the vein of Stephen King and John Ajvide Lindqvist partly based on a true story, is the scariest novel yet from Yrsa Sigurdardóttir, who has captivated the attention of readers around the world with her mystery series featuring attorney Thora Gudmundsdottir. Now, Yrsa will stun readers once again with this out-of-this-world ghost story that will leave you shivering.
My Review:
I still have the chills from reading this book. Especially since it is based on a true story. I started hearing noises in my house, and I had to turn on all the lights. The idea not to tick off a ghost is an important one. Until you fix the past, they will haunt your present. Their boat was coming back in a week, and I would not wait. I would find a way to get out of there! I am giving this book a 4/5. I was given a copy to review from Night Owl Reviews, however all opinions are my own.
