What a way to scare the crap out of me! I must say, this book was awesome! Lots of fear, adrenaline, and pure excitement while I read this. I was also glad that I read this book during the day. To read this at night will sure bring me nightmares.The paranormal touch to it was one I've seen before, b...
Ok, first off let me tell you that it was a quick read. I started it at lunch and read half of it. After I got home, I knocked out the other half in an hour. It technically was a horror story. It had all the right elements but it was lacking something. There really was no suspense, I knew how it was...
The Devouring was exactly what I expected it to be. Mind-numbingly and deliciously sinister horror wrapped up in a fantastically driven plot! (Hmm...that was a lot of adjectives, but apropos!) Thank you Simon Holt, you have my utter devotion. Reggie discovers a journal about the Vours, but she thi...
It was basically a corny horror movie in book form. I was rather disappointed … I thought the premise was cool. I thought it would be more about Vours taking over lots of people and that it would become one of those "OOH WHO CAN I TRUST?!" things. Instead, it was more focused on cheap horror-movie g...
I finished this book with an undecided feeling. It was a good read, and kept my interest. I'm not sure that I enjoyed it that much. A very interesting concept about creatures that take over the body of a person who is absolutely terrified on Sorry Night, which is the night of the Winter Solstice. ...
After hearing so much about this book and it's sequel, I finally picked them both up and read this first in the series right away. Needless to say I was pretty creeped out and had to put it down for a day before picking it back up again. I think the main problem I had was that I started reading this...
The Devouring was my first scary book. It wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be but I don’t recommend reading this when you are alone at night. You might get a little spooked! =]Reggie’s whole life begins to change when she finds an old book called The Devouring in the bookstore where she works. Sh...
This is far outside my normal genre, as I am not a horror film/ book/ story fan. But I have to say the core story and the characters of Regina, Aaron and Henry, as well as mysterious Eben, all made the story worthwhile. I still skimmed through the really gross-out descriptions of the nightmares and ...
thought this was a good book, but I didn't really find it all that scary. The concept of Vours was really interesting - and freaky I suppose, but none of the scenes themselves really scared me. So I suppose this is a horror novel in the way that if you think that something like this could happen to ...
