Snooze-Fest: “Sundown Motel” Falls Flat!

“Warning: if you're looking for a horror book that'll keep you up all night, trembling with fear, keep looking! ‘Sundown Motel' by Simone St. James is a ghostly disappointment that'll put you to sleep faster than a glass of warm milk.

The characters? Meh. The plot? Basic. But hey, at least the ghosts... wait, nope! They're just as boring as everything else in this book! I mean, what's the point of having ghosts if they're not going to do anything remotely spooky or interesting? It's like they're just there to decorate the pages with their eerie presence, but ultimately, they're about as scary as a kitten with a ball of yarn.

I was expecting a chilling tale of murder, mayhem, and supernatural shenanigans, but what I got was a snore-fest that failed to deliver on even the most basic horror elements. If you're a fan of predictable, unengaging stories with boring characters and ghostly no-shows, then ‘Sundown Motel' might be the book for you! But if you're looking for actual scares and excitement, keep searching. This one's a dud!”
