Rating: 4 My rating for this book is a 4 because the book had a great plot line and it was well written. I also think that the book was using too much suspense at times which is why this is not a 4.5.
Rating: 3 My rating for this book is a 3 because the book is bland in my opinion and does not have intensive detail. This book failed to get my interest and I believe the main reason was that the plot was pretty basic and I don't think it will hook many readers.

This book is so incredibly written. Nothing in the book feels too boring and everything is set perfectly. There are many characters in the book so it can be a little confusing trying to figure out who is who but nonetheless the author does a good job at making sure that we are able to differentiate between them. This is overall a very good book, has a mystery theme, and several plot twists to keep you entertained.
Lock Every Door is an exceptionally written horror/thriller novel. Riley Sager is very well known for writing thriller books, and this might just be one of the best written books by Riley. The storyline of the book is very interesting since it gives you insight on multiple characters’ perspectives. You not only get to feel what all the characters are feeling, but you also get an insight into their lives and how each character is so vastly different than the other.
