Very imaginative storytelling, very reminiscent of a Stephen King tale. Fanciful, scary, thrilling. The only negative that I have is that the climax itself felt very rushed in what was otherwise a well-fleshed out book. Would love to read more from this author. ( )

I thought I'd try this book outside my preferences for a change of pace. I received it for free through LibraryThing Early Reviewers. The way it was offered to me caused all kinds of issues with my ereaders (both Nook and Kindle). If I turned off the ereader I had to download it again.

The beginning was terribly slow and disjointed. Fans of Horror will like this book. ( )

Not Kindle Unlimited, not freebie day thing either, one of my here's a free no strings book but it would be really nice if you reviewed it when you were done {yeah do those now and then still, pretty sure this one was via librarything}. Was going to go with a 4, mostly based on my horror 'eh whatever' factor, as didn't realize that that was the basic genre, so don't go by that if you are looking for a horror book, on that basis you'd probably like it, so based on IF I liked horror in general or whatever, would say it's a 5, mostly because at least for the most part it wasn't same old {a little bit yeah but not overall}. *note: this IS available, as it shows, on kindle, BUT there is NO listing on goodreads for the kindle version, just paperback
