Nothing Special

I only found this book okay.

I didn't find it anything too particularly special.

I wasn't sure what I was expecting, but this wasn't it.

Well written and fairly quick read. It wasn't scary though but story was interesting.

I was a child when I caught glimpses of the horror film The Exorcist on television. It scared the bejeezus out of me, and to this day has remained the most terrifying thing I have ever seen. So it makes perfect sense that I chose to pick up this novel to set the spooky mood for Halloween 2021, right?! Having never been able to bring myself to watch the movie as an adult, I am actually glad that I read this book because it helped calm my fears of demonic possession and made this story not QUITE as terrifying.
