Rating: Summary: Haunting & Creepy - in the vein of early Stephen King Novels Review: When I started this novel, I wasn't expecting to love this book. But I was hooked from the first chapter. It gave me the "willys" and at times, made the hair stand up on the back of my neck. Susie Moloney has a winner here - would make a great movie! It reminds me of early Stephen Kings novels like The Shining, The Dead Zone, and The Stand.By taking us through three prospective buyers of this "house", this "living entity", while also giving us a great description of the "Realtor" - one of the main characters, well it just brought the whole novel "home" (no pun intended). Each owner got his/her own deathly visits and I enjoyed each and every one of them, right down to the very last page (and it's a goodie too!) I highly recommend this novel for anyone looking for a scarey ride.
Rating: Summary: The Dwelling: A Novel Review: Wow!!! It's been a long time since I've read a haunted house book that had such a great pay-off. I wasn't sure how everything was going to be pulled together at the end, but what a joy. This book had everything from great character development, especially the house itself to the novel idea that you were reading three separate books all connected by the house and the realtor, Glenn. I can only hope that Ms. Moloney keeps writing and I for one can hardly wait for her next book.
