The Last Harvest by Kim Liggett

4.0

"It's too late. No matter what happens, no matter what you do...he's coming."

Wow, this was a gory, creepy and fun story! It's the perfect mix of mystery and horror to keep the pages flying.

Clay's father did a horrible thing to the town last year. Once he was gone, Clay is now the man of the house. Between his mom's depression, Jess's rebellion and Noodle's young age - Clay is trying to get the harvest done, keep food on the table and the bills paid with not a lot of help in the house. But that's not even the worst part.

Clay has almost completely stopped sleeping. When he does sleep, he's having horrible dreams - full of gore and blood and people he loves....getting hurt. He's starting to slip - wondering if something is real or dream - and those around him keep warning of someone coming (more signs of losing his mind?) and mysterious prophecy and "sixth generation" quotes. It's all Clay can do to get the Harvest done as he sorts his thoughts.

It was compelling and hard to put down. And I saw the twist coming but it was a great time getting there. I will definitely read more by this author.
