Book Reviews of Suffer the Children
Book Review: Little Sarah
Summary: 4 Stars
My heart went out to little Sarah. Throughout the entire book I was hoping she would come back to the world and say what happened to her and what she has witnessed in that cave. The images of her following her older sister to that den of death are haunting to say the least. Sarah in her own little world seems acutely aware of what is happening but is powerless to stop it, although she is desperately trying in her own way. The Sarah character in my opinion is one of the BEST characters ever thought up in the world of fictionBook Review: This book has never left my mind
Summary: 1 Stars
I believe I read Suffer the Children when I was in middle school back in the 70's?? I guess I picked it up not knowing what kind of a book it was and I don't remember if I finished it but I know I will never forget the awful cave scenes. The seaweed and sand sandwiches will forever be etched in my mind and remembering all of that still disgusts me today! That book changed the way I read from then on...I've never picked up another novel that looked even somewhat similar in name or cover.Book Review: cry for all the children
Summary: 5 Stars
a 100 years ago a child was badly abused and killed. 100 years later another child suffers the same abuse but lives but is mute.the ghost of the child from 100 years ago takes over the body of
the present day mute's sister and children start disappearing all
over again. history is bound to repeat itself and i think this is
one of john saul's best books. anyone who has read any of his books cannot miss this one for it is creepier than anyone of his
i have read.
Book Review: Good book but Kindle version is full of errors
Summary: 3 Stars
I read this book as a teen when it first came out and loved it. Now that I'm an adult, it's good but not as great as I remember it. I must say though, the Kindle version is full of sentences without periods and some of the worst typos I have ever seen. I am shocked that this book could have made it to "print" this way. I was happy to see that John Saul's back catalog was finally coming to Kindle, but if they all have typos like Suffer the Children does, I may not read another.Book Review: Truly Frightening
Summary: 4 Stars
My first JS book was Punish the Sinners. It was a huge disappointment. I'm glad I took a chance and read this book. The plot is a bit confusing at times, but the fear factor more than makes up for it.It has been a long time since I have actually been scared while reading a book (The Shining, Salem's Lot), but this book gave me chills at times. The pure evil of the young girl, and the hopeless determination of her younger sister make this book a must read.
