Barbie's Reviews > Kill Creek

My thoughts in a nutshell
In October, I usually read some creepy, horror books because of the Halloween spirit. I really like the 'haunted house' trope so I'm always searching for the perfect book in this idea. Kill Creek was an okay book, but I didn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to.
The book is extremely slow. I can say that at some point, it was almost painfully uninteresting and dull. I think if it would have been a shorter book, then it could have been a much better read.
I don't like multiple POV in this case. It was confusing and we didn't learn too much about any character's background. It could have been better if we follow one of them and we get to more in-depth their motive.
I also don't admire the writing style. I don't want too much detail in a horror book. It ruined my enjoyment. If the author gives me too much information and he/she does it a cleaver way, I could live with it, but in this circumstance, Scott didn't do well (in my opinion).
I don't think it is a scary book. I read it at night, and I didn't feel any fear.
I liked the atmosphere in this one. Kill Creek was a great locale. I enjoyed the house's background story.
Overall, I would recommend it if you want to read a haunted house story and you can tolerate the monotonous parts. If you get easily bored like me, I suggest that you skip this book.
I gave it 3 stars because it was an okay novel.
