The Ghost Woods by C.J. Cooke
3.0
I am giving The Ghosts Woods a 2.5 ⭐️’s.
(3 rounded up)
➕ Multiple POV
➕ Likeable MC
➖ Slow read
➖ Lacking suspense IMO
I am a fan of multiple POV and that opening line had me hooked at first. But to be honest, I often found myself confused between the two timelines. I think that this was partly because it didn’t hold my attention. I thought it read very slow for me, and I felt there was so much potential to make it creepier with the old house, the witch and the woods. In my opinion, it just fell short of what I expected and wasn’t for me.
That being said, this book has a good rating on Goodreads and NetGalley, so I recommend reading for yourself and if you do, please let me know what you think!
Thank you so much to @harpercollins & @netgalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
