From Belgium with Book Love
"having read House of Skin, I really feel like this is the new age of horror"
Terror Tree
I love reading books that have me on tenterhooks, as I am turning the pages waiting for something to figurally jump out at me and give me a fright and this book ticked the box. This is the 2nd book I have read by this author and I am looking forward to reading more of his work.
The Divine Write
"This is an excellent read and I look forward to reading all of Jonathan’s books"
Aphotic Realm
"One of the things I really like about Janz's writing is his ability in creating these very believable characters and then change them seamlessly"
Horror Maiden
"Fans of ghost stories like The Haunting of Hill House and Hell House will love this book."
An Average life
Janz’ writing can turn on a dime. Lulling the reader into false security with actions as commonplace as a tiring drive on the highway, only to snap your head back with stomach curdling scenes of unnatural brutality.
High fever Books
"As usual, Janz is just as adept at crafting complex characters as he is at making readers squirm...House of Skin has plenty of rich, dark meat on its bones, and Janz gives us lots to chew on along the way."
Zooloo's Book Diary
"It will set your teeth on edge, it will give you goosebumps, it will make you cringe with the gore and gruesome, but most of all you will appreciate how a book can make you feel all of these things and still “enjoy” the storyline and want to know how it will end!"
Rachel Read It
If you are a fan of Janz, you are going to love it. If you are not, then get on board the ghost train, you are in for a treat!

Library Journal
Paul Carver arrives in Shadeland, IN, to claim the Watermere estate, an unexpected inheritance from his late—and reviled (by the townspeople)—Uncle Myles. Although he delights in the old mansion, Paul discovers that the house holds many secrets, most of them tied to Myles's wife, Annabel. When library worker Julia Merrow meets Paul, her growing feelings for him mirror her passion for Watermere; like the house, she has her own secrets. The author of The Sorrows revives one of horror's most beloved motifs—the haunted house—to good effect in a tale of star-crossed lovers in thrall to a ruthless ghost. VERDICT Reminiscent of Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House and Peter Straub's Ghost Story, this should please readers who appreciate a good haunting.
