A review by figsx
Horrorstör by Grady Hendrix

5.0

I love thrillers & horror novels more and more every year. I was intrigued by this novel through many random reviews I read and decided to give it a read myself. This was such an easy read and I read it all while I was "working", gotta love the WFH situation on a slow day. It kept me on my toes, as I really went in with no expectations but the sole thought this was going to be a fun horror story. When I think of comedy horror, I think of Scary Movie 2 and this was nothing like it, but it was definitely something new. I loved the fact that Hendrix had my heart beating with what would come next, but wouldn't cause me to put the book down out of fear. In fact, it was the opposite, I couldn't put it down because I was so hungry for what was to come next. I have trouble picturing things at times when they're described, so a big thank you to Hendrix for the illustrations and explanations when he introduces items every chapter. I liked the story overall and I'm not even mad he left us on a semi-cliff hanger at the end. This kept my imagination going and I can see this being made into an awesome film in the right hands.
