Review: Devil House

Devil House Devil House by John Darnielle
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Devil House by John Darnielle is a tough one to write about.  The title leads you to think this might be a horror novel.  It is actually more fictional true crime although it is a horror how we treat survivors of crime.  It has a book within a book with a couple of different stories being told at the same time.  It has epistolary elements.  If you like true crime, this is a really fantastic read.  It will make you think about the true crime stories you've heard or read.  It might make you question how you consume them in the future.  Perspective is everything.  I think this would also be good in audiobook form, and I would love to see a visual representation of Devil House.
