The Easton Falls Massacre: Bigfoot's Revenge by Holly Rae Garcia, Ryan Prentice Garcia
3.0

Basically this book is about a recently down-on-his-luck US Army Vet named Henry who goes hunting and accidentally kills a Bigfoot. Not knowing what to do he drags it back to town. Unfortunately for him, and really everyone else in town, there’s a whole ancient race of Bigfoot, and they’re out for revenge.

When the rampaging starts it gets violent and intense quick! Very gory, and what felt like a higher death count for just over 100 pages. Unfortunately even in a book that short I still wanted it to happen sooner haha. I enjoyed our protagonist and his little spat with the town jerk, but I wasn’t super invested in the massive emotional turmoil he is going through.

I was surprised in the direction the book took (like why exactly the Bigfoot showed up). Not good or bad, just didn’t expect it. I do wish there had been more about the Bigfeet in general. There’s a whole lore/backstory hinted at and plenty of room is left open for some kind of a sequel or series. I would love that!

Overall the book didn’t hit all the emotional buttons with me, but it reads quick and the second half is especially fun. It has definitely prepped me to want more Bigfoot in my life!

Thanks to authors @hollyraegarcia and @prentice2525 for sending me a copy in exchange for an honest review!
