Short and Sweet: Despite a shorter size and somewhat clunky writing, [b: The Exorcism of Sara May 27311086 The Exorcism of Sara May Joe Hart https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1445988285s/27311086.jpg 47367798] packs a variety of creepy and unnerving moments, leading to an unexpected twist and satisfying conclusion.We are introduced to Lane and his father, veterinarians in the world of post-depression Wisconsin. The town, while small, still boasts some semblance of modest wealth. A late-night, bizarre birth assist kicks us off into strange occurrences that grow stranger and sinister by the day. A malformed blackness crawling from a puddle in broad daylight, a vulture with an unwavering stare, and a plot twist that took me completely by surprise. This tells of an exorcism, but not in quite the way you may think.While concise, the synopsis doesn???t really do this novella justice. I can see this easily becoming a full-length novel, only for the variety of questions I still had after I turned the last page and caught my breath.???Lane, hold the lantern steady,??? my father said. I did, the trembling in my arms making the glass shade rattle in place. Something growled like a tomcat and there was a wet tearing sound followed by another anguished bleat from Josha. A match popped alight, blazing like a miniature sun. In the glow, the two-headed kid stood behind my father on its hind legs, mouths crimson and dripping. I did scream then.”
