shelflife 's review for:
Unbury Carol
by Josh Malerman
I honestly didn’t know how to categorize this one so I called it a fairy tale. It feels a bit like a retelling or sleeping beauty.
I loved Bird Box by this author but didn’t like his following book and was hesitant about this one. Then when I saw all the low reviews, I put it aside. Later, I heard a podcast of this book and they raced about it. So I decided to find out for myself. I chose audio because one reviewer said the reader was excellent. He wasn’t wrong! The reader may have had everything to do with the 5 stars, but I don’t care I loved it!
Unbury Carol is actually in a western setting, with outlaws, villains and gunslingers. It also has some magical elements to it and a fairy tale feel. So I’m. It sure what it is lol!
The villain in this tale is one of the most vile I’ve ever come across. He just got under my skin. Such evil! The characters here were wonderfully drawn. However, this definitely is not a boom for everyone and considering most folks may hold the author up for the brilliant bird box, this may not hold for many. That said, I’m thrilled I took a chance. ♥️
