gemmahenrynovels 's review for:
Horns
by Joe Hill
Pretty weird story... It's lucky that I am a kind reviewer or I would have given it less stars.
The characters were really sick, the story was difficult to read and painfully developed. I had no idea why anyone did anything. I felt like while I was reading the whole book was a metaphor for something deep and profound - but it kind of went over my head.
That being said - I finished the book and watched the movie with good old Daniel Radcliffe most certainly not playing Harry Potter (also what was up with that ending? - valid for both the film and the book).
So, weird story, but the premise was cool and the book did manage to keep me hooked throughout so it can't have been that bad. But once I finished I realised that I had no idea what the hell just happened (haha see what I did there?).
Give it a go if you enjoy horror, long winded metaphors, LOTS of violence and morally crippled characters.
Happy reading!

P.S. Ooh my first negative review! Exciting. ;)
