Excellent writing and pacing. I loved this one. The descriptions were so vivid and engaging I found myself completely wrapped up in it.

This my first real horror book and it was terrifying but I loved it and want more. That small town vibe with dark secrets delving into the supernatural was so gripping. I loved it.

4.0

I really enjoyed 'Pet Sematary', and thought it was really creepy, especially towards the end of the book. I thought the overall question this book was asking was interesting. It really makes you think. 
"Would you do anything to bring back your loved ones?" 
This book deals heavily with the topic of grief, so it's not for everyone. But, if your looking for a good horror novel, this is for you!
