Crawl by Edward Lorn


Crawl by Edward Lorn
Thriller, Unabridged 1 hour 45 minutes

You’re out in the middle of nowhere. You’ve been crippled and left for dead. There’s something in the woods. It’s coming. There’s only one thing you can do…

CRAWL

Juliet and Colton were once madly in love but Colton ruined it all when he decided to diddle the dog sitter (better than the dog, I suppose!). Juliet is fuming mad and who can blame her? When the story begins this is all fresh and told from Juliet’s POV. Her emotions are red hot as they are driving together to drop her off at her mom's house and you really “get” her. Her husband is a selfish dolt. Bad luck befalls them as their car is sideswiped and Juliet awakens dazed to find herself shackled to a post and things only get worse from there. Damn, and I thought my luck was bad!

The best thing about Juliet is that she is not a whiner. She acts.


The narrator is pure perfection for this tale. She conveys Juliet’s emotions extremely well as they range from simmering rage to pain, fear and full out anger. I’d recommend reading it this way, if you’re a fan of audio.

I was gifted a copy of this audio from the author with no expectation of a review but I “review” everything I read and, if you know me at all, you know this in no way changes my thoughts on the book. If it sucked, I would tell you. But this book was cringe-inducing awesomeness with just enough sarcasm and snark thrown into the dialogue and thoughts to make me a very happy reader.

  1. This sounds great. And I almost choked on my water when I read the "at least it's better than the dog" comment. PERFECT! I may check this one out! I finally managed to get out of my slump - thank heavens. Moon Chosen about KILLED me!

    1. This was fun. Lorn has a unique way with the words. So glad you're out of your slump. There's nothing worse than forcing yourself to finish a book :(
