The Curse of Church House Holler
by Josh Robinson
mysterious
fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
Complicated
Loveable characters:
No
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
Christian religious propaganda wrapped up to be "Appalachian gothic horror".
The main character just tries to convert nonbelievers to his religion and half the book is simply Bible quotes.
The pacing and character development is widely inconsistent making it hard to determine what the real time frame of the novella even is and making it hard to find the characters likeable. The women are written to either be crazy and dismissable or trad-wifey and submissive.
This book was NOT marketed whatsoever to be religious fiction. I'm sure people who are into this kind of thing might find it to be their cup of tea... but I would rather not have spent money on this copy for it to just be half Christian Bible verses anyway.
0.25 stars because the cover art is well done and alluring. To my knowledge, the author does all his own cover art - the cover drew me in.
