A Human Stain

Forgettable

This had lots of atmosphere and creeping dread, but collapsed under its own weight toward the end. Evidently the author had very explicit ideas about why things happened in the story, which were never even suggested in the text. Also, her ideas are kind of underwhelming, IMHO.

So, quick take on this one. It's definitely creepy. Kelly Robson sets off right away by building tension, and it keeps you guessing for a good half of the story. When the actual cause of all this tension broke through the story though, I kind of lost interest. I don't know what I was expecting. Honestly. Still, the twist here was just a little too odd for me to wrap my mind around. Be warned that this is a bit gory, which should be evident by the title but I figured I'd put a warning out. Overall, not a bad way to pass a half hour or so!
