Another book outside my norm, way outside. If you need a creepy, sinister mind fuck look no further. Aaron Holbrook returns to Holbrook House after 20 years away. His life is marked by one tragedy after another and this book follows the most recent escapade.
I’ve never read anything by this author and picked this one up on a recommendation. It is well written and definitely keeps the reader engaged. There was a point were it seemed a little convoluted, but I could have also been a bit tired while reading. The climax and beyond of this book is a quick wild ride to the end.
It’s not my typical type of book and not something I’m likely to ever pick up again of my own choosing. But it was a wicked read and kept me wanting to finish. The author has a very good writing style even if it is a bit dark.
Happy Reading!!
