Deliciously weird and creepy. My only complaint is that it is too long and if there were enough plot to justify that I wouldn't have a problem with it, but this was a bit repetitive. It definitely kept my interest until the end and I will continue to check out his new stuff.
A slow burn, captivating story about an evil apple. So so good. Don’t skip the author’s note at the end of the book - it’s a great peek into the writers mind & the inspiration behind the story.
Like a hot apple pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, this novel was delicious with every bite. Wendig strikes gold on everything he writes and this beauty is no exception!
In a town that seems normal, something sinisterly sweet and delicious blossoms, threatening to reign hell upon the unsuspecting citizens.
Wendig, in a Stephen King esque style, beautifully weaves a narrative of not just horror but the beauty of relationships found within that horror. Never in my reading life did I ever think I would read a horror novel based around apples but as usual, Wendig pulls it off and I ate it up piece by juicy piece.
Black River Orchard should land on everyone’s TBR list for it will be the perfect read to usher in the fall, when apples are at their best.
I give this novel

I loved this book. I hate that Wendig can’t write anything shorter than the bible. But I loved it anyway.
