I don't have much to say about this one. It was starting to grab me, but then she started eating people and all of the psychological manipulation just kinda went out the window. The first 200 pages or so are pretty awesome though, it's just a shame they through away all of the tension building for a rushed and rather pathetic ending.
Luckily, Kristopher would improve greatly in the next two years with Gone to See the River Man, a book that's paced perfectly and has a beautifully profound while still disturbing ending.
Um what did I just read? It wasn't what I was expecting.
It was madness that descended into murder, cannibalism, and ruining lives.
3 Stars mainly cause I think I have to like the point of view im reading from.
I discovered this book through one of my book groups and it sounded interesting. It was very well written and I like horror stories, but this is more for the gore lovers which is not my typical genre.
baaaaaaaaaaased
Do not read if you want quality writing, but the splatterpunk in it is pretty good.
