NIGHTFALL was not what I expected at all-in a good way! It tells an original story with a whole lot of imagination. With a a unique premise, situations that are full of suspense, immersive writing, and an unexpected conclusion, this is one that is worth checking out. 
 NIGHTFALL is more of a survival story than horror, but there are some moments that will raise the hair on the back of your neck, especially when paired with the mystery surrounding some events-what exactly happens at Night? Just like the characters in the novel, we are left in the dark (pun definitely intended). 
 A world that revolves around this concept of Night coming every fourteen years is an incredibly interesting one. Although I do wish some details were developed a little bit more and that we had some additional explanations overall I think the vagueness added to the air of mystery and fear. 
 The writing was fairly descriptive but not overly so, it fits well with this book because a majority of the novel relies on subtle tension and a lot of that has to be communicated through the text. However, I would say that the style of writing was more telling instead of showing, as it was very this happened, then this happened and so on. 
 The events leading up to the resolution were climactic but I did feel that the conclusion itself was a little lacking. It left me with a quite a few questions because some minor things just felt unresolved. Overall though, NIGHTFALL was a story I enjoyed. 
 I recommend reading this one at night for some extra eeriness.
