A review by bryangball
Invasion of the Body Snatchers by Jack Finney

4.0

Three and a half stars. I was so surprised how much I enjoyed this novel. Having a vague idea what “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” was about from the film, I did not expect this to be such a well-written horror novel. Both dated and timeless, the issues the pod people bring up— technology replacing life, for one— are very relevant in 2021. Written in the 1950s, as someone who’s a huge Stephen King fan, this felt very much like a King novel— in all the best ways.
