A review by growplantsreadbooks
Night of the Living Rez by Morgan Talty

dark sad slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

I falsely assumed this was going to be a collection of horror short stories. There are elements of the supernatural and horrific things happen, but these aren't really short stories. All of the stories follow the same young man at different periods of his life and in the end a traumatic event explains many elements of the previous stories. 
It is well written, but I almost put it down several times because I wanted individual short stories with multiple perspectives, and what I got was an unconventionally arranged bildungsroman.
