Recenzii
Such a good read
Highly engrossing
Really entertaining and pacy and fun to read, while still playing in that serious emotional territory
Home by Cailean Steed is an absolute triumph, an accomplished and confident debut that is not afraid to examine the dark side of cultish manipulation, while not losing sight of the heart of the story, the vulnerability of those taken advantage of. No-one is more vulnerable than Zoe, the escapee who was born into the cult. I found myself holding my breath, hoping for the best for her, while expecting the worst. Highly recommended
A daring debut ... Intoxicating, powerful and very visceral. Stunning prose, very dark but also filled with hope and love centred around identity and the struggle to find a sense of belonging. I was desperate for a happy ending
Absorbing, moving, and alarmingly believable, Home is an unforgettable story about identity, family, and the terrifying dynamics of a cult
A totally original debut that I couldn't stop thinking about and talking about while I read. Believable characters with distinct and unforgettable voices that drew me in and kept me reading far too late into the night. A thought-provoking, moving and clever novel that will stay with me
I don't remember the last time I rooted for a character more than I did for Zoe. The novel is original, captivating and packs a punch. The world of HOME is so well built, the reader is there with Zoe the whole time, and feeling the same frustrations and obligations Zoe does. Such a great read
Home is a white-hot gem of a book; brilliantly researched, so gripping and propulsive you'll want to consume it in one go, but also glowingly, humanly real - a gorgeous work of empathy and psychological verisimilitude. Cailean Steed is destined for great things
A thought-provoking exploration of power, cult mentality and identity. A propulsive and compelling debut
Tense, dark and intriguing, HOME hooked me from the first page. I was on the edge of my seat, rooting for Zoe all the way through. A compelling debut
This book has got it all. Queer representation, breakneck pacing, and an intricate, thrilling storyline. There's so much to this story, layer upon layer of insightful, arresting prose, and I suspect the characters will stay with me for a while.Some reviewers have complained about the dual POV, but I just love it when two strands come together at once. The ending was incredibly satisfying and every thread was tied up perfectly
A thought-provoking depiction of cult life . A very original debut . One to watch
Masterfully written . both enthralling and disturbing in equal turns
Page turner, well written and interesting
While Cults are far from new, they currently hold a particular interest for writers and filmmakers. Steed has done their research and the cult aspects of the novel ring true
An alarmingly compelling story about searching for and finding the truth
