The Girl From the Well by Rin Chupeco

*The following text is an honest, spoiler free review. Please enjoy.*

*Shudders* Finally a horror book with actual creepiness. You know that typical horror character when think of Japan,the girl wearing white robes wearing with long hair covering her face, well she happens to be our main character. I’ll let that creepy fact sink in while I get to the synopsis:

Not all ghosts pass over. This one surely hasn’t. While everyone else crosses over our ghost’s job is to help murdered children get revenge and free them from their earthly bonds. When our ghost, later named Okiku, meets Tark she will do anything to protect him, and his cousin from the demon trying kill them.

If you’re someone like me, who doesn’t read horror books on a regular basis, but just want a taste or a “gateway” book into the horror genre here is your book. Now keep in mind that at first the writing style of it takes some get used to (imagine a third person point of view when the third person is an actual person in the story.) Once you get past that, this book is a world of it’s own imaginative creation where you will mourn once you finish the actual pages of the written world.

For a book that finally puts the scare in scarey, here is 4.1 out of 5 stars since the creative writing style takes about 50 pages to get used to.
