outstanding haunted house novel
Bewertet mit 5 Sternen
What caught my eye first was not the haunted house theme of the book, but the protagonists who meet in the infamous Finch House: four horror authors, lured there for some online event to discuss and promote their work. But what they get is more than they bargained for, and when they return home, something evil follows each of them...
I loved how the author created four very different faces of horror with the authors, and on top of that added the haunted house. It was fascinating to see how the house - or whatever lived in there - crept into the work of each author, while at the same time keeping their unique voices intact. Reading those different versions of the same story should be fun (though much too time-consuming).
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to spend much time reading during the last few weeks, so this story took much longer than it normally would have, it being perfect "stay up all night reading" material. The feeling I sometimes got that it dragged along was only due to the fact that I had to read it too many small portions.
An outstanding haunted house novel - highest recommendation!
