Stolen Tongues

I had initially started this book, and only got around 50% through it before stopping. I picked it back up as part of a book club, and I felt decently satisfied by the end. The short story at the beginning was scary and I felt this same sensation toward the end of the book. I became bored at times when the entity would disturb them after returning home. I preferred the moments at the cabin. The “twist” of the deceased brother kind of came out of nowhere for me, and wasn’t my favorite. I am happy, though, that I returned to this book.

it definitely reads like something that originated on reddit, but it was still an enjoyable read. there were quite a few moments where i said “ew” out loud at something creepy. i felt like some things went a little unresolved—like the basement—and the big reveal for what makes 5 didn’t have any wow factor for me. all in all, it was a good booger book with some genuinely creepy horror aspects.

The beginning was GREAT! The ending was AWESOME! But the middle was like a scratched record of repeating the following: Talking in sleep… Hearing voices outside… Tapping on the windows and doors… Repeat 10 times! 4 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!
