In The Tall Trees by Angel N. Van Atta
5.0
Mella lives in a tiny house in the middle of a dense forest with her mommy and her baby brother, Pete. Sometimes her daddy comes and with him often the bad man comes, as well. Mella knows that she, her mommy and little brother are a secret family living where nobody knows they are, but she can't remember why that is or why her mommy is chained to the floor. In The Tall Trees is a story told through the eyes of our little hero as she must brave what's out there, lurking in the shadows, to save all that she knows and loves in the world.
What a haunting and heartbreaking little book I have found here. Books told from the perspective of a child will always hit differently one way or another. To hear some of the real world horrors the little one sees in her own words is so unsettling and thought provoking.
In The Tall Trees in raw and thought provoking, perfect for fans of short horrors and real world horror stories. Binged in one session is the only way to read this one. This way may not be for everyone, but if you think it might be - definitely give this one a try.
