I’m going to say this right up front even though I know people will yell at me for it but that is nothing new. I read this book for the Ladies of Horror Fiction Community Readalong while I was doing a re-listen of Pet Sematary and yes, I now realize that this was a very dumb idea indeed and I do NOT...
Sigh. Well this was an okay story, I only enjoyed the past time period in the book (the Sarah and Martin sections) and didn't like the present at all except for Ruth. The book fell down at the end too and I honestly didn't find this too scary. "The Winter People" follows four people (Martin, Sara,...
This was just what I wanted to read at the right moment. DISCLAIMER: Don't read it if you're hungry for stew because that's all anybody makes in this book. And biscuits. ACTUAL DISCLAIMER: Don't read if you don't want to read about grieving for dead children.
What an intriguing and mysterious adventure I found myself on, when I checked this audio out. Two stories that I found myself wrapped up in with characters who were dedicated to their responsibility.

I've heard that it's good and a must-read by pretty much everyone since its publication, but it really exceeded my expectations.I felt so uneasy and watched while reading this, which is great in my opinion. Not many books can get ...
There's a reason I don't read horror anymore.... I read this one for the Read Harder Challenge.There are two things that makes this a good horror. First, it's super creepy. Second, the problems of all the characters are super relatable. I can see how easy it would be to go down this road and find my...

If you like a good campfire ghost story, then this is a must-read! It has just the right amount of creepiness and it kept me enthralled throughout. This was my first McMahon book and I really enjoyed it. I will definitely be seeing what else she has to offer.
