Publisher Review

A truly dark read * The i * This moody Gothic tale drips dread, and the screaming ab-dabs * Peterborough Telegraph * Gailey's newest gothic novel is painfully suspenseful and richly dark, their rushing, intoxicating writing in peak form. Delightfully creepy and heartbreakingly tragic, Just Like Home is equal parts raw terror of a dark childhood bedroom, creeping revelations of a true-crime podcast, and searing hurt of resentment within a family. It's a must-read for all gothic horror fans * Booklist, starred review *
