so-soThis was just all over the place and inconsistent. I could go the rest of my life without hearing/seeing “other mommy” ever again and it would not be enough.

panOk I‘ve officially read two of Malermans books and I disliked both. I can now say I am not a fan of his writing style. This story is told from a child‘s perspective and gets annoying because it‘s repetitive, sometimes you don‘t know if she‘s thinking something or saying it out loud, and best of all the ending sucks. I stepped away from this book thinking what the hell did I just read? The only bonus was it was a quick read. 👎🏼
so-soContains mental illness, exorcism, death. It was too much for me.
pickThis was so good. So creepy. Tons of twists. I couldn‘t put it down when I picked it up. I love this author so much. She really knows how to take something spooky and make it real and feel like it could actually happen. Definitely a must read if you enjoy horror and thrillers. Didn‘t see the ending coming at all.
Happy Halloween Eve! 🧡🎃🧡
I'm starting this today, and I'm really really excited about it! I love all of Josh Malerman's other books, so I have high hopes for this one! Apparently, two of my co-workers couldn't finish this because they thought it was too scary! 😱
Thank you @Larkken for this perfectly scary #allhallowsreadswap 🎁.
I am really looking forward to reading these two books. Thanks for adding in the sci-fi book; I‘m really getting into the genre more. The bookmarks are so cool.

panAll you need to know about this book is that every single one of these reviews is a lie. Theres so much wrong with this book. I almost bailed a few times but i stuck with it and i really shouldn‘t have. What i think it‘s about is family dysfunction turns into a “haunting”. But im not sure because it was all over the place but repetitive at the same time. Also I have no clue what the ending even meant, which irks me.
pickThis is a creepy story, but with all good horror, it takes real life and turns it into the monster we all fear. In this book, Malerman turns family dysfunction into a terrifying story. So often in life, we have a way of projecting who we want to be seen as into the world, but behind closed doors, our secrets turn us into something else. And that "other" side of ourselves can cause hurt, distrust, and trauma.
