A review by ladykatiereads
Melmoth by Sarah Perry

4.0

I got a free paperback copy of this book from work, at B&N, courtesy of Harper Collins. I was immediately drawn to the cover the day we got it in and I thought 'I have to read this!' I didn't really know it would be a Gothic story completely focused on this figure coming to take sinners to die with her. It was a super strange concept, but also very interesting. I had never heard of Melmoth the Wanderer before, and I think the way Perry wrote this ominous story really brought a sense of fear and paranoia to me as a reader as well as to the characters within the novel. This was the perfect spooky read for October, and I am so glad I had the opportunity to pick this book up!
