    Nice review but one correction - It was a chili factory -not nabisco. Ed and Bea had worked at the Nabisco factory in Chicago before moving to Smiths Hollow.

    I do not mean to crash this thread, but the SFF180 Horror playlist seems to have vanished. Maybe my phone sucks? I play that list sometimes, when working or meditating. Am I bad at navigation, or did you remove the playlist? 🥺

      Very strange! I've just checked both on my phone and desktop, and I see it's still right there on the channel's homepage, between Fantasy and Steampunk. Try refreshing until it shows up again?

    You're such a wonderful reviewer. I'm really really sad, and actually disheartened, to see that you have so little subscribers. I don't know what I can do.. few in my circles are interested in book-reading, and fewer in book reviews.

      I appreciate that! If you take part in any online forums like r/fantasy on Reddit, those are places you can recommend the channel. But it’s okay if you don’t, it’s awesome enough to have you as a regular viewer.

    The 80s without cliched pop culture references every second page! No Tears for Fears? Sign me up! Sounds kinda like the Wisconsin section of American Gods...

      Tears for Fears were good though. Def Leppard? Ehhh....

      @@SFF180 Tears for Fears are great - but they are like Michael Caine in the 80s - their songs show-up in everything now, or covers of them, it gets tiresome after a while

    Great review as always. I agree that the story waa VERY predictable with a super obvious baddie. However I will credit Henry as a storyteller. I find she is great at writing an immersive tale. I exhaled this one.

      Yes, it is all definitely gripping.

    I'm not a YA fan either, Thomas, but I always thought Stephen King did a good job of drawing realistic kids and teenagers.

      I don’t dislike YA at all, I just find a lot of its teen heroes more idealized than realistic.

    This is technically not YA.
