I Did It Again
I started a book that had horror mentioned as one of the genera listings. The book was "Abandon" by Blake Crouch. Since I have Amazon Prime, it was the book I borrowed for May. It had a really interesting premise-all the people of a small mining town in Colorado disappeared on Christmas Eve a hundred years ago. It was very well-written. It went back and forth between current time people and those of the town back the hundred years. Even though I found the book disturbing, I had to keep reading to find out how it ended. And I could not just jump to the end to see how it ended. You had to go step-by-step with the author. The few days that I was reading it, it was on my mind and in my dreams. I think it will be a while before I get this one off my mind. And yet, it was a satisfying book. The author did not leave a lot of loose ends. I really like that. So, for those who like horror, it was a great book but I hope I don't ready any more like that. When will I learn?
