A review by akookieforyou
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving

1.0

This was extremely underwhelming to read. I watched the Tim Burton adaptation, and the TV show (the first season at least), and remember liking both, so I thought I might enjoy this too... but I ended up being bored and a little confused, which is quite the feat considering how short this was. I didn't like the writing style, at all, it was too descriptive of random crap; it honestly felt like the author was trying to pad the story. The only interesting part happens at the end, when The Headless Horseman showed up... but even that was uninteresting

Spoiler

and the author alluded to the fact that Icabod's rival just dressed up to scare him away, which isn't nearly as much fun as real ghosts
