Dear Laura by Gemma Amor
4.0
4 stars
Emotionally potent, while Dear Laura is not overly complex, intricate or in-depth, it packs all the right punches within its short length, delivering a sympathetic journey of a woman tormented by a traumatic childhood event. I do think going in expecting 'horror' might lead to disappointment, as its progression shares more characteristics with a thriller than something that is haunting or atmospheric. Still, I find the writing fluid, and overall very well-paced — will definitely read more from this author!
