My ThoughtsI had so much fun with this book! I was immediately sucked in and within the first few chapters found myself sufficiently creeped out enough to be checking window and door locks. In the beginning, I was thrilled to find that paranoia feeling surrounding me. Whatever this evil secret was, it could be right here, in my living room with me, and I wouldn’t even know it. That delicious spine-tingling sense that us horror addicts always crave was right there in my face.
Sadly, this feeling only lasted about halfway through the book. Though I was hoping the feeling would last, I was pleasantly surprised when it was replaced. Instead of worrying about the invisible critter that was going to get me, I began to piece together a grand mystery that was just waiting to be unraveled. Once I was able to glue the pieces together, I still had no clue how the book was going to end.
If you’re a hearts and flowery type of reader, this may not be the book for you. This is definitely not a romance where everything is tied up in a neat little bow at the end. If, however, you’re a thrill seeker or a paranormal junkie, you’ll have a blast with this one. Others may find the religious undertones a fascinating discussion topic upon reading.

FYI - I get the error message "Could not retrieve id for the specified page. Please verify correct href was passed in" on the ""Like" Ebookhorrorwriter on Facebook" entry so I'm unable to complete that entry. I don't if it's just me or the form itself.
