A Short Story
Release date: July 22nd 2014
Purchase: Amazon

Synopsis via Goodreads:
A frightened girl. 

An empty field. 

Four houses. 

Which house would you choose?

FOUR HOUSES is a dark short story told in an unusual format that leaves readers wondering how they'd react if found in the same situation as seventeen-year-old Maddy.

*Purchased ebook via Amazon





This one's been out for a while and I'd wanted to read it for so long. Finally I got the chance. So at first when I started reading the story, I was confused. But then I became intrigued and wanted to figure out what was taking place. I drew a couple of conclusions. One was that Maddy was at a party and was drunk, and the other was that she was insane and in a mental institution. You can only imagine the eye opener I got when I realized what had really happened at the end of the story. 

Four Houses is well-written and very interesting. Victoria had my attention throughout the craziness. When it came to the end, I realized the purpose of the various guys and what they represented in her life. It was all so twisted and intense. I was freaked out a few times. But nothing scared me like the ending. Never saw that coming. 

Overall, this was a great short story and as sad as it was at the end, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Another wonderful reading experience with a Victoria Scott writing.

  3. I completely love stories that mess with your mind and make you think and just when you think you have it all figured out the author throws a wrench into it and you have to start all over again.

    Wonderful review!
