Description

Deep in the heart of Appalachia stands a crooked farmhouse miles from any road. The Morrows keep to themselves, and it's served them well so far. When girls go missing off the side of the highway, the cops don't knock on their door. Which is a good thing, seeing what's buried in the Morrows' backyard.

But 19-year-old Michael Morrow isn't like the rest of his family. He doesn't take pleasure in the screams that echo through the trees. Michael pines for normalcy, and he's sure that someday he'll see the world beyond West Virginia. When he meets Alice, a pretty girl working at a record shop in the small nearby town of Dahlia, he's immediately smitten. For a moment he nearly forgets about the monster he's become. But his brother, Rebel, is all too eager to remind Michael of his place....

Violent

Nearly had to stop listening at some points and I am not faint of heart. Very sad, violent story.

Okay but not amazing

Paul Boehmer did a good job at differentiating the voices and adding a southern drawl to the characters.

Honestly, I don't have too much to say about this book. It was... okay. I was more saddened for Michael than horrified at anything happening. All the abuse he suffered and mind games his brother played at Michael's expense brought about emotions of pity, sympathy, and left me disheartened.

I found the ending, while satisfying, to be bitter sweet. While there were moments of justice, overall it wasn't the comeback I had hoped for Michael. That's how it goes sometimes, though. If someone lends you the book or you can get it from a library, it's not a bad book to go through. However, I won't be purchasing a physical copy. Also, you have to be in the headspace to read this kind of book, so fair warning to those of you who pick it up.

Sick and twisted… I loved it

Couldn’t stop listening until I finished. Some of the scenes are visceral and I never expected the ending. Made me feel truly sad for Michael.

confusing as fudge

I really wanted to like this book, but it took me 4 months to finish it, and I'm so confused. Way too much confusion.

Most shocking book I’ve read in a long time!

I can’t tell you if the writing is good. This whole book just shocks you over and over again. It keeps you engaged or totally distraught. Disturbed and twisty at every corner. When you start to make connections, they are ones you really hope you’re wrong. If you’re looking for dark and twisted, you’ve got it.

Painful and gruesome yet gripping and interesting

It’s honestly one of the best horror novels I have came across. Like this is what I call horror. Not shy from a vivid images that makes your stomach churning. The performance was really good.

Wow that was bleak

I'm happy some of the content I worried would be in this book wasn't super graphic but oh my god this book is just bleak and I felt super hopeless at the end. I really didn't like the narrator though so I'd honestly suggest trying to find a physical copy for yourself

Interesting story

Not as graphic as I was scared it would be from other reviews. Very interesting story. Worth getting through the performance.

Loved it!

This book was very interesting. It was a little dark but also something that happens in our world. I liked the psychological aspects of it and I liked how easy the story was to follow. However the beginning was a little confusing but after a few chapters I understood that they were talking about flashbacks to the past. For that reason, I would reread the book to get a more full understanding of the starting of the book.
I loved the main character Michael and how the author described him. It was interesting.
I would recommend this book.

Underwhelming

Predictable twists, was hoping that it was so predictable that I would be wrong and something more exciting would happen. Had a hard time getting through this one, but I’m glad I did because the end of the book was the most entertaining.
