So the only other Grady Hendrix book I’ve read was The Southern Bookclub’s Guide to Slaying Vampires and that was already a few years ago, but I remember really liking it.
I was excited to pick this one up and read another Grady Hendrix book! I LOVED this book!
I was entertained, I was fully immersed into the story, I loved the character development, I liked our characters! And the ending was a chefs kiss! I truly didn’t think Horror could be THIS GOOD.
Grady Hendrix, I now want to read ALL of your other fiction books, and possibly reread The Southern Bookclub’s Guide to Slaying Vampires! lol.
I’ll be the first to admit that I HATED Mark at the beginning of this book! I wasn’t sure I’d ever like him lol, but I loved getting to know his character more throughout the book and I loved seeing his character grow and develop from wanting nothing to do with his sister, to being able to bond with her and do the right thing by her and her daughter! (Trying to avoid spoilers, so don’t want to say too much) If I think about it, he was actually probably my favorite character because I just loved his development and how it all came together in the end.
The dolls and puppets in this book are thoroughly FRIGHTENING. Well done, Grady Hendrix. I mean, I was already afraid of dolls before reading this, but now I’m equally afraid of puppets. 😂
This book had me shocked, scared, and laughing all within a few pages. I absolutely loved the way it was written! I was so entertained and just wanted to keep reading. I was honestly sad when it was ending because I was enjoying the book so much.
Ughhhh I just LOVED this book!! I loved the way the story was weaved together and I was pleasantly surprised with the ending.
JUST GO READ IT. 🤍
