Reviews - Foe | The StoryGraph

Junior and Henrietta live a quiet unamazing life on their farm. One day, the silence is changed when they get a visit from a mysterious stranger. Terrance has something to offer Junior. What is it? What's his plan?

I didn't really know what to think of Foe. It never really connected with me, but it was well written enough for me to see it through the end. All in all, it was OK enough.

Really sticks the landing. I hope Reid is in therapy... I haven't read I'm Thinking of Ending Things but goddamn buddy, yikes. Seems like uuuuuh this guy doesn't believe in love.

I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what would happen the whole time, and the book tricked me more than once!

Delivers a double-suprise twist which is great. I read the book knowing there was at least one big reveal and it provided a satisfying conclusion that made my investment worthwhile. The major complain is that even at a slight 265 pages the book still feels padded out. It would probably work better as a 150 page novella than a full-length novel.
