Title: All I can say is WOW (was that awful!)
Review: I'll be pithy. I thought the book was terrible. I bought it based on the hype (I know, mistake #1)... live and learn. It's hard to articulate my distaste without giving away the plot (and I use this word loosely here). Simply put: the book is NOT scary. Rather, I found it to be absurd, lame, corny, pick an adjective. Smith is a good writer (A Simple Plan is a great novel) but this thing read like a rejected script for a bad teen horror flick. If you want a truly creepy book, read or re-read, Salem's Lot!
