You think Joe Hill is a fangirl deep down for his Dad? Or did he just grow up thinking every ones Dad was a Horror mastermind? I ask this because there's a Carrie reference and if anyone else wrote it i wouldn't ahve noticed but being Kings son it made me think (for way to long) what it would be like growing up with Stephen King as a Dad. Did he ask his Dad to sign his books for him? Does his dad get signed copies of Joes books? What age did Joe read The Shining and promptly decide to never go near shaped hedges and hide the weapons xD. 
 This books was my second Hill read and I am blown away but him, the writing is impeccable, the premise fantastic Privileged boy waking up after a rough night with horns anyone? Oh is that not enough how about we make everyone he encounters have no filter and blurt out the most fucked up thing they can think about. 
 "Are you sure I can't have a little sniff of Oxy?" the doctor asked. He brightened. "I'd share. We could get fucked up together." 
 Igs been accused of his Girlfriends murder, never being proven guilty but not declared innocent the small town he lives in isn't the forgiving type. With his new found power he decides to find out what really happen the night Merrin was murdered. 
 Talk about great! Ig isn't the most likable but he's a passable person, his life has been defined by Merrin and hers by him. Together from teens they had everything planned out, marriage, children, the whole shabang. When she's found dead Ig loses himself and just starts existing rather than living. 
 The books told in past and present time line as well as MPOV. The villain is so good, I love me a good villain and this one didn't let me down. (view spoiler)[ Lee was such a sick prick, from a kid he was messed up and he got the most satisfying death (hide spoiler)] 
 This wasn't gory or even really frighting but the mayhem of Igs powers and the vengeance plot made this a complete page turner. 
 The ending made the entire book, I loved it so much and want more (view spoiler)[ Death by snake suffocation please. I did feel super sorry for the Snake though :( Poor baby (hide spoiler)]
