The Other by Thomas Tryon

1.0

Definitely NOT a childhood favorite. Required reading for one of my high school English classes, and for me it was one of the ugliest experiences I've had with a book. Through most of the book, I was troubled and disheartened by the plot, and though I didn't exactly anticipate the ending, I knew it wouldn't be good. The imagery that entered my mind at the end is something that still comes back to me in nightmares. I don't recommend it for anyone...the worst of psychological horror.
