Out Behind the Barn by Chad Lutzke, John Boden

emotional mysterious sad tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

Five stars. Original storytelling and well-paced for a bleak but suspenseful story. Mysterious horror, maybe a touch of folk horror. Sad, beautiful descriptions, plenty of creepiness and overall excellent writing.  I loved the ending.
