Old Country

I am a huge horror fan, the scarier...the better. Sometimes though, just an eerie and mysterious atmosphere and I'm in love too. Old Country isn't scary, at least not for this seasoned Stephen King addict. However, it is spooky and mildly gruesome in some spots and the overall story itself I enjoyed.

I am a sucker for small town and isolated scenarios. While Sasha and Harry aren't 100% isolated, they aren't around a bustling town either. The fact that they are surrounded by mountains, acres of land and trees and the closest neighbor being a mile away gave me the perfect horror feels.

Multiple POVs aren't for every reader but I enjoy them. Reading Old Country from the different perspectives made the story better for me. Too bad there wasn't a Dash perspective as that pup was my favorite character.

The idea of a spirit haunting land owners with each passing season offering a different type of haunting is one I haven't read before. Not like this and I loved it. I would have loved to read more about the actual legend(s) behind the hauntings but not knowing the full story adds to the mysterious nature so not a total downer.

Old Country would be a perfect one to read during Spooktober and I recommend adding to those TBRs for October. I sincerely appreciate Grand Central Publishing and Novel Suspects for providing me with a review copy. All opinions expressed herein are mine and mine alone.
