Crossroads (2020)

it is Bleak it's sad it's about grief it's about Obsession and I thought it was really solid

I think it's a really good step into horror I think this could be really great for people who are just wanting to get into horror so I thought it was really well done. I'm gonna give it a 4.5 out of 5.

the main character was very likable and relatable and you just get to see her downward spirals so not the lightest story on this list but definitely well worth your time and one i would just love to see more people picking up because i think it was just a solid read

crossroads stumbles slightly at the climax with a few story elements left unresolved that i felt should have had better closure and an epilogue starring a couple of goofy cops in what is almost a vaudeville routine does the overall story no favors but i can think of few examples of horror fiction that have left me as disturbed and emotionally drained as this one and laurel hightower has climbed effortlessly to the top of my list of authors to watch

so crossroads for me was a solid four stars i found the raw emotion and the grit extremely attractive because it's not something i'm used to seeing in a story and it just made it feel honest
