A review by cwrose
The Haunting of Ashburn House by Darcy Coates

4.0

This was the first time I'd ever picked up a horror novel, and it did not disappoint. I enjoyed it from beginning to end, definitely kept me turning the pages, wondering what the big mystery was...and what was really going on. Some truly creepy parts in the story and mysterious going-ons.

The writing flowed and was easy to read. And, the book had a satisfying, good ending that wrapped up all loose ends, and by the end, everything had been explained. I liked our heroine, Adrienne, and I rooted for her and her cat, Wolfgang, as well. Being a pet owner myself, I understood their bond and could relate to it, so for me, that was a big plus in the story!

I can't say I absolutely loved the book, but I definitely liked it. Only minor complaint was that I found it a little slow in some parts, but overall, a good read, and I would pick up another book by Ms. Coates in the future.
