  • One For Sorrow Review

    Hannah F. - 6 years 4 months ago

    I really do not like Horror books or Horror movies that much. When I read this book it kept me wanting to read more to where I couldn't put the book down. This book happened to take place during a pandemic the Spanish Flu back in 1918. This book had so parts with suspense and parts with sadness. The thing I did not like about this book was that the people just Annie was going crazy and that her parents didn't try to listen to Annie when she told them about Elise. The thing that I liked in the book was her friend Mrs. Jameson that she met. I would really recommend this book to people who love mystery and horror and for people who don't really like horror that much.
