Night Beach is a very intense book, unsettling and creepy at times. I was pulled into the story but found the main character a bit hard to take. Abbie, a 17 year old girl on the verge of leaving adolescence, is the protagonist of the story. She has a crush on her step-cousin Kane, who has been livin...

Yep, this was creepy.I'm a huge fan of Australian lit and I always get a kick out of reading Australian authors because it's different than the usual, and this did not disappoint. Kirsty Eagar's writing paints a picture and sets the scene right before your eyes. I loved that. My palms were sweating,...
Rating: 2.5 Stars I read this book with Jasprit from The Reader's Den for a read-along and honestly, if it hadn't been for the fact that I had to read three chapters every day, I would have given up on this one a looooong time ago. Night Beach is, in many ways, the perfect October read. It opens up ...
Night Beach was a book with so much potential but just fell way short for me, having previously devoured Eagar’s Raw Blue, I went into Night Beach with really high expectations. From Raw Blue I knew Eagar had the knack for creating a raw, achy and intense read, from just reading one of her books I k...
Oh, this book frustrated me. The writing (the physical, lyrical arrangement of words on the page, that is) was beautiful. I wish I could give it 5 stars just for the writing. But the actual plot - well, was there even a plot? There was something about a supernatural thing, some (evil?) being that wa...
3.5/5As with Raw Blue, Eagar fills Night Beach with all these images and leaves me with all these impressions. But take all those away and what we get is a story that’s actually very simple… and yet every single part of it’s drawn out, sometimes, needlessly so. So much so that things took a turn for...
Uh oh. Don't hate me.It is probably for the best that I am too much of a coward and a lightweight to start experimenting with drugs, I tried weed once and began spacing out after two puffs. However, I've listened to enough lengthy descriptions about friends' experiences to feel qualified to compare ...
