Asylum

4.5 Stars!

I've been trying to find a good scary book for a little while now, and I came across this trilogy. I'm so glad that I did!! The pace of this book was perfect to me, I know that a lot of reviewers had said that they thought that the beginning was kinda slow, but I was hooked from the first chapter.

I think that the author did a phenomenal job by creating the perfect tone to this book. This gave me the heebie-jeebies in broad daylight!

I couldn't stand Elizabeth, she just didn't listen. She wandered off on her own, tried to open doors they were told not to open, got lost, got them into the worst situation possible...but I guess there always has to be that one idiot, without them it wouldn't be a horror story, right?

The only reason that I gave it 4.5 stars is because I wish that it was just a touch scarier. Yes, it gave me the creeps in broad daylight, but when I went to bed that night I didn't think about it at all. To me, a 5 star horror book will sit with me for days and scare the living shit out of me.

But anywho, I can't wait to finish this trilogy. I'm dying to know how this story will end!
