I've been looking for a book discussion that doesn't talk about how the content of the book is so dark and how crazy the author must be in writing something like this etc.....I love horror, gory, thriller, and crazy weird books/movies....I wanted to watch a review of someone talking about the actual book and I found it here haha... I liked the book, I think it was a bit too long for my liking and feel that towards the end of the book the author added some spice scenes to fill in. I overall liked that the book had many genres and a few things happening at once which kept me invested. I wish there was not a part two and that she would've ended the story with the first book and call it a day. But overall I gave it 4 stars and I will be reading the second book because the way the first one ended just MAKES ME HAVE to read it because if not, I will feel like I wasted my time.
Hahahah yeah, it seems like most of the love that floats around for this book is based on shock about how dark it gets, and-as a horror fan-I’m just sitting over here, shrugging my shoulders and watching people cope with the evil that Zade constantly commits lol. Thank you for watching!
I am interested in if you would still not think this is a self insert, after looking up a photo of the author 😅. Besides the physical similarities, she also had a sold out book signing in her hometown as well, so many aspects of Addie's life seems to mirror some of Addie's.
comparing it to Richard Laymon is making me want to read it, but then the present tense made my skin crawl. i vehemently HATE the present tense, so I am with you on that 🤣
Jesus, dude, you have no idea how bad the present tense is, in here. These newer writers (of erotica, horror, any genre) have got to stop that shit lol. It’s making people like me not want to read.
@@mrwildboyhorrorbooks I hate books where it’s like “She is walking to the grocery store. Sandra enters the store and gets a shopping cart, and walks down the aisles searching for a bag of potato chips.” I hate it so much. Riley Sager would be a great author if he didn’t use it in EVERY BOOK. Darcy Coates “Dead of Winter” would also have been great. But it fell into the trap of the present tense.
@@mrwildboyhorrorbooks Halfway Initial impressions were good, I liked how the protagonist was shown to be a horrible person, but otherwise it's sort of cliché, with a kind of cringe banter and awkward swearing. Though to be fair to the author, I am reading it translated, because I couldn't find it in English, and I did find a few places of bad mirror translation of idioms.
