The Body Will Follow
by Rob E. Boley
THANKS TO NET GALLEY FOR PROVIDING THIS BOOK!
Not the Strangest but Strange
So, I’m not really sure where to begin. I enjoyed the premise of the book and while I love supernatural horror. This bordered on body torture, (in my opinion) and was a bit graphic. Once the story unraveled and you find out what happened to Carrie it begins to make more sense.
We get into the title … The Body Will Follow and what that means in conjunction with the story. We learn about Carrie and who she is. We find out how Carrie was possessed and that there are others. We learn that this wasn’t a random act and that someone did this to her. We learn about sheep (baaaahhhh!) and many other things that tie you into this story.
Carrie also finds a friend throughout this whole ordeal. I find David endearing as he cared for a complete stranger, and put his trust in her beliefs. He really proves to be her only friend and that’s part of the backstory. Which delves into … how much you really know about the people around you, and what your friends truly think of you.
The writing kept me engaged, the story was right to the point with details but not so much that you bogged down about every single nuance in the background. I enjoy a supernatural horror thriller, and this book kept me guessing till the end.
