Publisher's summary

Nothing is as it seems in this chilling, twisting tale by best-selling author Andrea Portes, perfect for fans of Madeleine Roux and Danielle Vega.

Rife with dark humor and chilling twists, This Is Not a Ghost Story is American Horror Story meets There’s Someone Inside Your House. It will have listeners restarting to the beginning after the shocking finale.

I am not welcome. Somehow I know that. Something doesn’t want me here. Daffodil Franklin has plans for a quiet summer before her freshman year at college, and luckily, she’s found the job that can give her just that: house-sitting a mansion for a wealthy couple. But as the summer progresses and shadows lengthen, Daffodil comes to realize the house is more than it appears.

The spacious home seems to close in on her, and as she takes the long road into town, she feels eyes on her the entire way and something tugging her back. What Daffodil doesn’t yet realize is that her job comes with a steep price. The house has a long-ago grudge it needs to settle...and Daffodil is the key to settling it.

Great narrator

As the title states, this isn’t actually a horror/ghost story despite what the tags imply. The narrator is great, and the story reads like a stream of consciousness from a teenager. Quick and easy listen, but not exactly what most horror or thriller fans are looking for.

Hysterical narration; obvious plot

I immediately had concerns about the narrator who was playing the role of the teenaged protagonist and all other characters - awkward and protagonist often sounded hysterical. Cannot recommend.

Ugh

Awful story. Lousy characters. Listen to something else. This one is a stinker. Narrator wasn’t too bad.
