Welcome to Litsy!

This was a good story, it was a paranormal mystery that became more horrific as it went on. I read this over the course of one day. I enjoyed reading this and give it 3.5 stars. The main characters, Rachel and Finn are a married couple living in a small town. I didn't like their relationship with each other. They were so mean. But they did love their children. The eerie creatures in the woods were definitely scary and interesting.

3.5⭐(Light Pick)
•I believe this book is scary, and if I had watched it on TV, I‘m sure it would‘ve had me terrified. But in this medium, my connection to the story and the characters was really only surface-level. I wonder if I didn‘t let myself get too immersed because I didn‘t want to be freaked out when I go camping in these particular mountains in a few weeks.
•Leanne Woodward was fine, but I would‘ve liked additional narrators.

This book was great. The cover is gorgeous and fits perfectly. An edge of your seat story from start to finish.

This is a thriller/horror story. About a small town and it's children. I'll say right here: DON'T MESS WITH CHILDREN. Don't even look them in the eyes.

The Keenan family has lived in the wooded Dahlmouth, VA for 3 years, but their relocation for Rachel‘s opportunity to become chief of police seemed worth the price small town living. More religious, the town hates the blogs & “city writing” of Rachel‘s husband, a pariah in his own family after the fatal car accident he caused that stole the life of their son. Witha reimagining of the fate of the lost Roanoke colony, this spooky tale moves fast.
