A review by jenhurst
Near the Bone by Christina Henry

4.0

I’ve read a decent amount of horror novels since October this year, many of which were on the goodreads choice awards. I did enjoy “things have gotten worse since we last spoke” and “all the blackened teeth” which have gotten awful reviews on good reads, but every other one I read I thought were bad-okay. Maybe i just have a different taste of horror, I’m not sure. I really enjoyed this one though. I liked how it was in the winter and it was atmospheric with the cold. It gave me similar vibes to one of my favourite video games Until Dawn, so if you like that game I recommend picking this up. I loved how fast paced it was. I’m excited to read more by Christina Henry. The ghost tree and the red riding hood retelling in particular.
