Scary, dark, sometimes sad, with fabulous narration. It was even better than the first one for me. I loved the visit to the Japanese suicide forest. The history of the ghosts was so dark, I loved it. It hit my wicked dark loving spot perfectly.

Bravo! Seriously, this book was excellent. I made it evident that I wasn't a huge fan of Rin Chupeco's first book, The Girl From the Well. It started out strong, but it just didn't hold up the way I wanted it to. I wanted terror. I wanted ghosts. I'm happy to say that The Suffering offered all of th...

This is what I was hoping the original book would be. I take back any negative things I said about the scare factor of the first book because this had it in spades. Spoilers for the first book in the series will be unmarked, as a heads up. Guys, don't read reviews for sequels before you've read th...

And while it's much the same as the first books, it differs on some very important points. The one thing that really stood out for me was the change in POV, this book is ...

Well color me impressed! The Suffering was everything I could have hoped for in a sequel. I am really blown away at the thoughtfulness Chupeco put in from the very first sentence to the very last. There wasn't an inch of space that didn't aid in making this story come together in the most fabulous w...

***This review has also been posted on The Social PotatoLast year, I read and adored The Girl from the Well but for some reason, it completely slipped by me that The Suffering wasn’t a new standalone, but rather the sequel to The Girl From The Well. Given that it had been some time since I had read ...

[I received an ARC of this book through NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.]Like the first novel in this series, I find this one hard to rate, as I liked quite a few things in it, while sighing at others. Probably my main issue with it was that it introduced plot lines, but didn't really fo...

I received this book via NetGalley to give an honest review. Wow the author has done a wonderful job yet again on finding me a new author to read about. I was lucky enough to read book one The Girl From the Well and enjoyed it very much. So when I got to request book two I was very excited to get ...
