Girl in the Woods

This will probably be the last rainy Sunday snuggle session for me and my buddy--he's in the final stages of heart failure and we've decided that it probably will be time to take him to the vet this week. Between his illness and my grandmother's passing last Christmas, it's been a really hard 2019 for me so far--and especially lately, it hasn't been easy. Sending positive thoughts to all Littens struggling in some way ❤ #dogsoflitsy

LoverofLit I'm so sorry. Deciding to say farewell to a fur baby at the end of their life is never easy. My heart goes out to you 💕 6y

Not my favorite of hers but still really good! It was kind of hard to like some of the characters but they didn‘t ruin the book. Loved the creepiness towards the end 👻

RadicalReader @TheDrunkenLibrarian what has been your favorite creepy book? 6y

TheDrunkenLibrarian @RadicalReader I would have to say The Winter People by Jennifer McMahon 6y

Not my favorite by her, but still a creepy read. I wish I had liked the characters more...that would have made the book much more enjoyable.

Now, I am at a loss as to what to read next. 😕

My son and I took a walk a few night ago on our local nature trail and I cam across this great image. So I captured it.

Bookgirl

Dismantled: A Novel | Jennifer McMahon

so-so

This book started out nicely with some good suspenseful atmosphere, but it ended up being kind of a mess. Without being too spoiler-y, some plot points are beyond silly. My biggest complaint is about Emma and her friend Mel(?) Mel is a 9 year old who rolls her own homemade cigarettes and says things like "she's in a dissociative state." I'm all for a good precocious character but this went into the completely unbelievable territory. Disappointing.

MaleficentBookDragon I actually really liked this one. The doll was super creepy. With all her books you must REALLY suspend disbelief. 8y

Bookgirl @MaleficentBookDragon true, I just had a hard time with the young girls both talking like grown ups. I like some of her other books better. I think the Winter People is my fav 8y

I can remember buying my first Jennifer McMahon book but I couldn't remember even reading the description and after sitting patiently for some time it jumped out at me one day from my bookshelf and it prompted an obsession (Promise Not to Tell was the book). While I somehow have yet to read The Winter People and The Night Sister, Dismantled was, I think her "creepiest." It's definitely a #scaryread that needs more recognition #AllHallowsRead

If you love a good twisty, turvy, creepy book, you should check this one out. In fact, check out ALL of Jennifer McMahon's books. They are all AMAZING.
