Officially hooked on Joe Hill book. I previously read Heart Shaped Box and it was so good I chose to read another Hill book. This had been on the edge of my seat! Definitely a great book. Can’t wait to watch the show.
Joe Hill has a wild imagination

This the second Joe Hill book I’ve read. Both were fantastic. First was The Fireman. Great reads that we’re hard to put and keeps you thinking long after you’re done. If you like Steven King you will like Joe Hill.
I’m not sure

I don’t know if I can say I liked this book or not. The main protagonist was very difficult to like, which was part of her character traits, but all I ended up doing was rooting for the “bad guys” more. Speaking of, the antagonists are the far more interesting characters in this book and I would have enjoyed much more backstory on Charlie Manx. The ending of the book that seems like a happy ending does not seem happy at all to me but is actually pretty messed up. Also there were a few things that I thought were left unresolved by the end. Otherwise, I found this to be suspenseful and very fun.
Mediocre

Drags on, and it feels like it. I barely finished the book and felt like I could've told you the end after reading the first 20 chapters.
This is the worst book ever!

I wish I hadn’t wasted my time or money. This book is overly violent and nonsensical. It’s premise is ridiculous and idiotic!
Excellent book.

Just finished this book and I thought it had a new take on the Vampire genre. Enjoyed his writing and this book had some seriously good writing, I wasn’t aware he was Stephen Kings son when I began reading, apparently the apple does not fall far from the tree.
A good one!

I really enjoyed this book. It made me uncomfortable. It made me scared.
Guys, nothing's missing!

The sentences that seem to cut off? The end of the sentence is the title of the next chapter.
Phenomenal book, as per Joe's usual. I love his writing!
Fantastic Book!!!

While reading the book I thought this is sort of Stephen King"ish" only 100 times better. Then I looked up the author after I finished. I was surprised to see the relation. While I enjoy Stephen Kings books I've never really liked his writing style. I LOVE Joe's writing style. Maybe it's because I'm of a different generation - a millennial, but the way Joe brings things to life is brilliant. He's not too wordy in his descriptions. He is able to pick just right words. I loved this book from beginning to end.
I just have to add that for the people who gave bad reviews because they thought the words were cut off are complete idiots!
Fascinating ride!!!

Fascinating ride!!!... That's the best way to describe this book. I loved the creativity and the way the author narrated the story. It's full of suspense, action, emotions and magical places. Once I started reading, I couldn't stop. Thanks Joe Hill for this experience!!!
As much a master of horror as his father

This book rolls along with a great cast of memorable, likeable characters. Even the bad guy has his insane charm. A wonderfully unique horror tale.
A work of art

The last sentence of each chapter finishes in the new chapter. Duh
A truly amazing horror story that also takes you back to your childhood.

I'm always a little sad when I finish reading a really good book. I always try to drag out the last remaining chapters just so I can be immersed in the story longer. Joe hill manages to write a horror Novel that is suspenseful & at the same time forces the reader to look back upon their own childhood. Reading this book has makes you fondly look back upon being a kid and reminds you just how important and wonderful a child's imagination can be. In a way, after reading this book I almost feel reacquainted with my inner child. So thank you for that, Mr. Joe hill.
