Disturbing

If you could sum up Closet Treats in three words, what would they be?

Creepy and creepy.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The story did not go where I expected it to go.

Any additional comments?

Excellent narration of a story far more outside of my comfort zone than I expected.

HOLY POOP! WHERE HAS THIS AUTHOR BEEN HIDING?!

This story was flippin' AWESOME! It's dark, gruesome and everything I want in a horror novel. This is the 2nd book I've listened to by this author and I can't wait for more. Narrator was clutch too. I have only collected first edition hardbacks from 1 author (long live S.King), but I'm buying a new shelf for this guy. Ebay, here I come!

Excelent horror novel

A very well delivered horror novel, gripping and creepy as hell. Good pace, story and characters. Looking forward to read other novels from this author!

First rate psychological thriller

What made the experience of listening to Closet Treats the most enjoyable?

Being able to just sit back with my eyes closed and just "watch" the story unfold in my head complete. Being that I'm a slow reader, this is more efficient and allows for a more connected experience vs reading a little here and a little more a few days later.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Yes, it has a slow burn quality to it by introducing subtle doubts about what is actually happening (don't want to go further to avoid spoilers).

Which scene was your favorite?

So hard to choose, but I would have to say the plot twist at very end of story (you'll have to read to find out)

If you could rename Closet Treats, what would you call it?

I'm terrible with titles, but here goes, Ice Cream "Man"?

Any additional comments?

Despite loving his latest offering in The Black series, I still think this is my favorite of Paul Cooley's tales.

Average

A horror stort, it is slow, very slow and it is disappointing most of the way tgrough. The author did a good job with ghe stiry line, the chsracters, the building of suspenwea. He outsmarted me, it did motgothe way I thought it would. Not gory or yucky. and a book I will not forget
