INCIDENTS AROUND THE HOUSE got to me. Got inside me, my brain, my heart. I went in fairly blind, and I think that’s the best way to go into this book. It is haunting. It is heart wrenching. It is terrifying to the point of dreading every dark corner, every shadow in the furthest limits of your peripheral vision. The narrator couldn’t have been written any better. I was absolutely mesmerized.
So realistic was this book that I felt I knew the characters; hell, I cared for the characters, but sometimes hated them, yet quickly warmed up to them, and so on, and so forth. Amazing characterization throughout this book. And the incidents around the house? I won’t forget them anytime soon. Reading them gave my brain an incantation to produce a visual of absolutely every detail, as that’s how well they are written. And six little words will forever flash into my brain in moments of peace, because they are burned into my memory from fear and great waves of sadness. INCIDENTS AROUND THE HOUSE would definitely make an excellent film.
Enjoy the read!

It sounds more intense than I may have time to give it right now.
ReplyDeleteUnderstood. I'm reading a book right now that's taking way more time than I have, and I end up reading while unfocused.
DeleteI like a story that gets in under my skin though right now I'm just wanting fluff.
ReplyDeleteI get that. My reading tastes have moods, too.
DeleteI read the first part and I am hooked. This will be really great!

I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteSounds great. I assuming it's horror, right? IN any case, another book has just been added to my TBR standby list. Thanks for the recommendation.

ReplyDeleteWith the type of folklore posts I've been doing this month, I'm sure I should be sticking to light and happy books right now. LOL.
