Point Pleasant by Jen Archer Wood
5.0
When Ben Wisehart returns to his eerie hometown of Point Pleasant, West Virginia, he not only has to deal with the town's legendary monster, the mothman, but also has to come face to face with what made him leave in the first place, his childhood best friend, Sheriff Nicholas Nolan.
Point Pleasant is the perfect mixture of horror and romance, guaranteed to send shivers down your spine and give you many sleepless nights while at the same time warming your heart and sometimes even drawing a few (or if you're me, many) tears. It is a tale of friendship, loyalty, love and monsters that is definitely worth the read if you are a fan of any of them.
Jen's ability to bring characters to life while still working on the setting is one that I have only come across in a few books and is the sign of true talent. Moreover, the folklore in the book is well researched and believable, which makes the story all the more gripping.
Read it, you won't regret it!
