A review by buckaroo22
Shadowland by Peter Straub

Did not finish book. Stopped at 48%.

This book had me and then didn't, had me then didn't. Once it entered the second act I'd say where the boys are at the uncle's house on Vermont is where things just really started to drag for me. I hate not finishing a book, but honestly each page felt a bit torturous with the difficult (for me) to visualize descriptions of magic/hallucinations/etc. I really wanted to like this and be transported to spooky Vermont magic woods but it just wasn't for me :(
