The very end of the book infuriated me.I didn’t like her character at all in the book. (That’s not a spoiler by the way, the synopsis says he is contacted from beyond the grave.) The ghost wasn’t present enough in the book to really impact me one way or the other. I didn’t get emotionally invested in or the least bit scared by the ghost.This is only a 224 page book – getting bored from time to time isn’t a good sign for any book of that length, much less a horror novel! Because of the methodical/procedural aspect of the story, I got a little bored from time to time.This book really didn’t evoke any emotions in me at all. I never got that uncomfortable and disturbing feeling I normally get from reading other horror novels. Horror novels need to be full of emotion, suspense, fear, and surprise. The story almost read more like a police procedural than a horror novel. Yes, there were scary moments, but they were few and far between (at least for me). This book was too methodical and procedural to be scary.The thought of hypnosis causing someone to hear people’s thoughts, foretell events, and even hear voices from the grave was an interesting and disturbing premise.Here are my pros and cons for A Stir of Echoes:
A stir of echoes book movie#
Ugh… I think the movie was way better than the book. I can’t even believe I am about to type this. But as Tom’s existence becomes a waking nightmare, even greater jolts are in store as he becomes the unwilling recipient of a compelling message from beyond the grave! Now he’s hearing the private thoughts of the people around him-and learning shocking secrets he never wanted to know. Tom Wallace lived an ordinary life, until a chance event awakened psychic abilities he never knew he possessed. Primary Genre(s): Horror, Supernatural, Paranormal
