The Hungry Ones by Chris Sorensen

3.0

"Oblivion would be better than this hell."

The Hungry Ones is the sequel to The Nightmare Room, which was one of my favorite books last year. This book has two main characters, and one of them is the same main character from the last book (it took me a minute to realize this, though).

If possible, I would recommend reading the two books together. I was a little confused at times because I had a tough time remembering everything that happened in The Nightmare Room. This book begins where the previous one left off, and there isn't really a refresher on information (which is fine; I'm just giving you a heads up).

I had a difficult time getting into The Hungry Ones. It's entertaining, but unfortunately, I don't feel like it really stands out from other haunted location novels. There were a couple spooky scenes, but I never really felt drawn into The Hungry Ones, or convinced of the scariness of the hotel. I found the ending to be a bit confusing, but we know there's a third book coming, so everything will be ironed out. This is not a bad book at all, and this is a very fun haunting series. I'm looking forward to book 3.
