What a reviewer from Reader's Favorite had to say: The Day I Married Roger by Eileen Sheehan is a dark and intriguing read. The writing was descriptive, and I could feel the dark and supernatural beings in the mansion. I was hooked from the start, and at times, the hair on my arms was raised. The plot held me captive, and I had a hard time putting the book down. The suspense kept me on the edge of my seat, turning the pages as fast as I could; I did not want to miss a thing. The characters were realistic and relatable. I felt empathy for Sally, who went into this marriage bright-eyed but was let down in the worst way imaginable. The book was skillfully written, and every event felt as if I was there in person. This is a kind of book that lingers with you. I enjoyed reading it.

The Day I Married Roger by Eileen Sheehan is a chilling tale that will send shivers down your spine. Don't expect a fast-paced read; this is a slow-burning story that builds in suspense and tension, gradually drawing you in and leading you to a horrifying finale. The characters are developed into likable people, and the descriptive style of writing makes you feel like you are in the story, living it alongside each character. This is a compelling tale, a little graphic at times, but nothing that doesn't fit the plot. It's a slightly different take on the genre, centering on themes of control, love, and the wrong kind of marriage. If you like a good part-supernatural-part-horror story with plenty of suspense and twists, you'll enjoy this one.
