Upon first reading, it became immediately clear that House of Hollow is not for the faint of heart. While the mystery at the heart of the narrative is enough to draw in any type of reader, the book promises horror and bite that is sure to leave you falling into a restless sleep after reading. The story is peculiar and odd, with characters to match who quite literally entrance readers. The book's overall horror elements hang back within the first couple of pages, but its clear they intend to creep further into focus until readers completely fall under its spell. It makes me both nervous and excited!
