It looks like I'm going to be the odd one out with this book, but not in the way you might have thought. In a surprising change of events, most of my friends did not like this book or at least, gave it a two star rating. But I did like it. I've been thinking pretty hard about this book and how I wan...
Before I started this book I took one look at the cover, shuddered and then got a little excited. I am a massive horror fan and I thought this was going to scare the pants out of me, but in truth it didn't.Actually it was not scary at all and there is no way that I would ever label this book as a h...
The Murmurings was a creepy thrill ride of a novel. I was sucked in from page one, stayed up way to late to finish it because I just had to know how it all ended. The main character Sophie is convincing, brave, and selfless; something we all look for in our heroines. The world-building was spot on, ...
Ever look at a book and the first word that comes to mind is “creepy”? That was me with The Murmurings, only to be more confused by the inside of it because it wasn’t exactly what I’d expected it to be going into it. Where the cover starts with creep factor, dark and shocking, the story ends a bit o...
"Best not to get used to that," I tell myself. It's not a good thing to start missing the company of your own imagination.Have you ever watched a movie with a great deal of suspenseful buildup, only to get to the end and realize that you were sitting around waiting for nothing? *edit* I do need to c...
There were definitely things about this book that I liked: the Arizona setting (especially the town of Jerome), the whole "creepy mental hospital" thing, and the main character, Sophie. But for the first half of the book, I was pretty confused. The second half of the book definitely got much more s...
The Murmurings definitely had a very good start that left me wanting for more. It was able to capture the voice of a lonely and confused girl, isolated by her peers due to the unfortunate and unwanted conditions that surround her. Her sister just died in a crazy way, her mom's an alcoholic and not a...
This was super creepy.I applaud you Mrs. West. You managed to freak me out throughout the novel. Since last year, I've been more and more interested in thrillers after so many paranormal novels disappointed me so I decided to shake things up and I'm glad I did because thrillers were just what I need...
I'm happily apart of the blog tour for The Murmurings by Carly Anne West hosted by Shane@ItchingForBooks and Carly Anne West! I actually had just finished reading my copy from Goodreads when I saw there was a tour happening, like a happy coincidence, and Shane was nice enough to let me join. For th...
