chronosunflower 's review for:
The Unloved
by John Saul
That third star is for the suspense of it all, which is recurrent in John Saul's books. They always hit that narrow sweet spot that I crave in horror literature, but never beyond the point of mediocrity. I keep rewriting the review, but words fail me today. I suppose I have nothing important to say about the book, nothing that could make a review valuable or important to read. I feel like others have phrased my opinions better and have nothing new to add to what has already been said.
My final thought is: mediocrity. That's the best you can get from John Saul. Never expect more or less. He writes based on tropes we find now overused and non-sensical, yet he makes them nostalgic in one sense or another. It's cheap horror, but sometimes that is all I want to read. So I suppose I got what I wanted.
