adventurous dark mysterious medium-paced

As a tinfoil head, I loved this book! Unless you're a big conspiracy nerd, you will not enjoy this novel.

The Mothman Prophecies by John A. Keel is a collection of stories and experiences surrounding a town in the US known as Point Pleasant, home of the Mothman!

This novel was chaotic in structure and often did not follow a linear timeline, which has me confused for some parts. It's also important to note that this novel is not actually a story about mothman, but a collection of stories, with only a handful that feature our 7ft tall, red eyed cryptoid. Keel focuses on many stories of UFO's, aliens, MIB, shady government business within this novel, with Point Pleasant as the focal point.

Regardless of the misconceiving title and the chaotic structure, I loved this novel. I'm also extremely biased because I'm a huge tinfoil hat and I was in my element reading this book. This book had me questioning everything!

Do I believe in mothman and his appearances forewarning a massive tradgedy? Of course I do, who wouldn't?
