Book: Lynwood
Author: Thomas Brown
Release date (if applicable): June 17, 2013
Synopsis: Something is living in the woods of Lynnwood, a idyllic village in England that is the image of a Thomas Kincaid painting, that feasts on the inhabitants of the small haven.
My rating: 3.5 Stars
My opinion: Although the premise of the story and its' characters were pretty interesting, for some reason, I could never quite warm up to this 144 page novella. Normally, I can put my finger on the exact reason I do or do not like a book, but am unable to do it with this one even after allowing myself to process the book. In my normal level of reading, I could finish a 144 page book in less than 2 hours, but I kept putting this one down and it actually took me 3 or 4 days to finish it. I would still recommend it though. It was a pretty creepy story. I kept thinking along the premise of the book "It" by Stephen King with an English twist.

Hello Naomi,
ReplyDeleteA quick message to say thank you for reviewing my book. I'm grateful to you for taking the time to read it and write a few words about it. I was wondering if you might share your review on the book's Waterstones listing? They are big booksellers in the UK and I would love to see a variety of reviews on there, showing different responses, giving potential buyers more to consider.
If not, don't worry, I just thought I would ask! All the best,
Tom
