mh_books 's review for:
Let the Right One In
by John Ajvide Lindqvist
I will write more in this review soon but for now, let's say.
I really enjoyed this and it is probably one of the goriest visceral vampire stories I have read of date. It beats Stephen King. Infact, I think only Salem's lot and this one makes a good attempt at horror? Bram Stroker and Anne Rice are wrapped up in the romance of their Vampires. I don't think Glittery Vampires count towards anything :) and Buffy vampires very too handily turned into dust.
The multi-person perspective took a little time getting used to, however, the story more or less carries you through. The ending though kind of petered out for me. I am not particularly happy with it. However, there is a follow on short story that may clear things up?
Onwards to the movies based on the book which I will watch on Netflix. More exciting is I have just found out that this is a play as well and it's coming to the Abbey Theatre in Dublin in time for Halloween - how on earth are they going to do this on stage??? I absolutely must get tickets.
This is recommended for those who enjoy a gory vampire tale. Warning this tale includes sometimes graphic sexual violence towards children.
