Unbury Carol by Josh Malerman

3.0

---

I’m kind of right in the middle with this book, I didn’t love it but I didn’t hate it either. Some parts of the book were so interesting that I couldn’t put it down while others times I couldn’t help but wish the story would just hurry up and get on with it. The idea behind the story is both fascinating and absolutely terrifying but I thought the execution lacked a little oomph to take it to the next level. I did enjoy the mix of genres, a mix of horror and suspense/thriller and western is bound to be interesting but it didn’t have quite enough spark for me.
