It’s weird, it’s dark, it’s gross… and I loved it.
I’m a fan of weird, gothic horror and this book delivered! I’m hesitant to give too much away, because the mystery is most of the fun, but with The Crows, C M Rosens has taken some classic elements of a paranormal small town story and created something fresh, interesting and utterly addictive.
How they managed to make me fall in love with a grimy, eldritch weirdo like Ricky Porter is beyond me, but I absolutely loved the friendship that built up between him and Carrie as the story went on, and I really enjoyed how everything wrapped up at the end.
I will definitely continue reading this series!
