The Shape of Darkness | Laura Purcell
post image

Reading this in our cosy cottage by the sea 🌊 a storm was howling last night so perfect gothic Victorian fireside reading 📖 however I‘m still waiting for something to “happen” to grip me on page 115 compared to Laura Purcells others I‘m finding this one v v slow 🥱

This book was the perfect atmospheric, creepy read for the spooky season.This was one of those horror/thriller reads where you get goosebumps if you read it in the dark as I like to do with such books. I was all in until the very last page and found the unhingedness and the reveals along with the conclusion to be make it all a very satisfying, horror/thriller read.Disturbing, sinister, psychological thriller/horror writing at its finest. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Alright, this book was not as good as So Thirsty. But it was fun. From the dysfunctional family dynamics to the haunted house it‘s a fun read for spooky season! 👻

3⭐
I loved Such Sharp Teeth by this author, but every book since has left me chasing that high without ever catching it. The potential for something good was there, but between the unlikable MC and the lackluster plot, I couldn't stay engaged and found myself surface-listening throughout.
🎙️I'm honestly not sure whether the narrators, Alex Finke and Natasha Soudek, contributed to my feelings about this book or not.

My #LitsyPenpal has telepathic powers! I‘ve been wanting to read the new book by Rachel Harrison and ‘The Ghost Writer‘! I can‘t wait to dive into the new Caitlyn Starling book plus a ‘new to me‘ title/author Mark Waddell! The Amish popcorn and Scary Popper plus Snoopy candle and bath salts will all pair nicely with above mentioned books! Thanks @Beck9lol for your thoughtfulness! You always get me! Happy Halloween to all who celebrate! 🎃🤡👻

AmyG I loved Ghostwriter. Enjoy. 1mo
Beck9lol Yay! We finally got each other the same book. Great minds…It looks good. Happy Halloween and thank you ☺️ 1mo

While the plot is good, I had a love/hate relationship with these characters. The MC could be funny/“edgy” but she could also be incredibly bratty. Her family seemed great at the beginning but as more of their dynamic is revealed, you start realizing how manipulative everyone is. But ultimately, that‘s the point of this story: every family has its drama and its demons. In the end, the MC has a great arc and I like how the story wrapped up for her.

jen_the_scribe … Although, I expected something more when it came to the house. Also want to add that the main narrator was fantastic. The secondary narrator was okay, but I cringed when she did certain voices for the male characters. (edited) 1mo

This book has the authors trademark sarcastic humor and wildly imperfect protagonist. The main character is definitely not very likable, but you end up rooting for her anyway. It was a fun read overall, lighter on horror, so if you are looking for a spooky read without the gore this could be a solid pick. 4⭐️
