Dear Ms. Roberts:
This is a tough review to write and not because I was unhappy with it but because while good, it reads like one giant prologue.
This book is better suited to be purchased and read with its two other companion books because the plot is one that spans the three books. In fact, when I was reading this book I didn’t know if it had a plot. There was no crescendo, no climax, and no denouement. It was about 300 pages of setup which included a fairly decent love story.
The story opens with three ten year old boys who swear a blood oath of friendship and in doing so release a demon onto the town of Hawkins Hollow. Every seven years, on seventh day of the seventh month, the demon roams the town turning seemingly ordinary people into monsters. Caleb Hawkins, Fox O’Dell, and Gage Turner went on a camping trip, the middle class boy, the hippie’s son, and the son of the town drunk, and promise to be there for each other for the rest of their lives.
