How do you tell an author to stop scaring the bejeebies out of you?

 

If the author is Ms. Barber – you don’t.  You go along for the ride, hold on tight, and be glad you did.

 

Yes, another phenomenal read.  And I can’t give you any details.

 

Why?  Because, “Seely’s Pond” is a read that you must take alone and allow it to unfold and sweep you up into its tense and frighteningly silent menace.

 

In, “Seely’s Pond” Julia Tayte, her Minister husband, and son have moved to a new home in Western New Jersey.  Their new home comes with its own pond and secret history.  Only, when Julia starts finding skulls washed up from the pond does she question what’s in the pond.

 

You do not want to know. 

 

This starts the creepiness of “Seely’s Pond.”  What is in the pond and what does it want Julia?  Will Julia be able to convince her closed-minded husband, she isn’t crazy?  Can one woman destroy an ancient evil?

 

Okay, you do want to know.  But, trust me – do not read this when you are alone.  Do not read this at night, in a darkened room.  Do not read this near any body of water.

 

Do read “Seely’s Pond.”

 

How soon till “Seely’s Pond II”?
