Black Mouth is a standalone horror novel by author Ronald Malfi. After only a few pages in I knew this one was going to be something special. Ronald Malfi's writing style is incredibly vivid and engaging. The descriptions, character development and suspense/intrigue that he creates is masterful. I read this in one sitting! The characters were flawed and incredibly likeable that you couldn't help but feel invested in what happened to them. I loved the way the author made you question what was real. This book was exceptionally well written, the words able to evoke a full range of emotions and senses in the reader. I gasped, I cheered, I frantically turned pages. I picked this one up on a whim, drawn in my the mysterious and eerie cover art. This was my first novel by Ronald Malfi but I have already started reading "Come with Me" by the same author and am excited to have found a new author to read. Thank you to Ronald Malfi for writing such a fantastic and engaging book and thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for allowing me to read this early copy.
