Review: Saturday’s Child by Clare Revell

This is a very intense, chilling read. I have to admit that when I was a little less than halfway through the book, I almost gave up. I was reading it late at night and it just was really freaking me out!

This book is a thriller based on the idea of the dangerous power that dabbling in the occult can unleash. The two main characters in this book have a really enjoyable love story, but the horrendous things they must encounter were almost too much for me.

The writing was strong, powerful and very descriptive. The fact that I balked a bit in the middle of the book is due to the nature of the dark forces the story was dealing with. The writing was top notch and this was an interesting book.

The strong love story is what kept me reading, only in the daylight rather than at night! I really wanted to see what happened between the two main characters and I was happy with the way the author tied up the ending. (4 stars)

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher through The Book Club Network.
