When I started this audiobook, and it was a child’s voice speaking, I groaned a and thought “here we go“. But it needed to be a child’s voice. The child’s voice magnified the horror and the dread in the story, which was legitimately scary. It’s been a long time since I have found a story that disturbed me so much. And as it turns out, the narration was perfect. I will be looking for other audiobooks by this offer, and I highly recommend the story.

Great protagonist, and very relatable to me. The narrator was fantastic. The story was legitimately scary in places.

Truly frightening, with well-drawn characters. It’s giving Stephen King a run for his money. And it’s a redemption story.

Not one bit scary, and way too long. I almost didn’t finish it, but instead listened at 1.7 for the last 4 hours.

I felt like the main protagonist was kind of bratty and fairly ungrateful. But there was some context around the first. The central love story was gorgeous. I loved the entire premise. Prose is lovely, but a little overboard at times.

It had an air of almost frustrated acceptance of something unnatural and surreal. Loved it

I had not realized it was YA until I was a bit into it. And I had a real problem with the narration as the emphasis on words was often out of place. But overall it was a fun listen!

Couldn’t put it down. Characters are so fully realized, yet it never became a jumbled mess like it could have.

Maybe a taaaaad overly sentimental

Well don’t read this then. I was so excited to read another of this authors’s books after the excellent, atmospheric, legitimately frightening Elementals! I slogged through this for several chapters, hoping there was going to be some unexpected twist. Nope. This could not have been the same author, no matter what Google says. It was simplistic, clunky, injecting gore that felt at complete odds with the prudish and naive heroine. If only she had been an early victim. The story would have been shorter, and that’s a good thing.

The narrator went really overboard with the crude hillbilly voices, and those characters (like most of them) were 2-dimensional.

I fell asleep a few times while listening, and never felt compelled to rewind to the chapters I missed. Trust me, and take a hard pass on this one.
