leahrosereads 's review for:

The Mary Shelley Club by Goldy Moldavsky
4.75
dark mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Did I guess all the major twists? Yes, yes I did.  And normally that would've made me like a thriller less, but this really did read like a horror movie.  I knew what was going to happen, but I stayed tense waiting for it, holding my breath, knowing that the monster was right behind the character, and screaming that they should turn around.

The writing, characters, and fear elements were top notch! Cannot wait to read more from this author!
