The Different Kinds Of Monsters: A Psychological and Supernatural Horror Novel by Seth Chambers
2.0
I gave it a 100 pages but DNF.
The concept is really, really good. Like, seriously good. But the style felt very meh and the parts where you follow the actual baby dino are just plain boring. Writing an animal point of view is tricky because you can't make them too human but you cant dumb them down too much either, and here the author fell into that trap.
I feel like it would have worked much better as a short story, and maybe with a human hero you dont actually want to slap ?
Yeah, good concept, poor execution.
