The Church of Dead Girls
The Church of Dead Girls: A Novel | Stephen Dobyns
1 post | 7 read | 6 to read
One by one, three young girls vanish in a small town in upstate New York. With the first disappearance, the townspeople begin to mistrust outsiders. When the second girl goes missing, neighbors and childhood friends start to eye each other warily. And with the third disappearance, the sleepy little town awakens to a full-blown nightmare. The Church of Dead Girls is a novel that displays Stephen Dobyns remarkable gifts for exploring human nature, probing the ruinous effects of suspicion. As panic mounts and citizens take the law into their own hands, no one is immune, and old rumors, old angers, and old hungers come to the surface to reveal the secret history of a seemingly genteel town and the dark impulses of its inhabitants. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Since the last 2 books I picked to read did not hold my attention, I added them to the bottom of my TBR list. This one seems like it will keep me up all night to find out what happens. This just might be the last book I read of 2017! That will make a total of 15 books read this year ☺️

Caffeinated_Reader Eh. I feel like I now know a shit ton of personal info on a town full of made up people. idk the story was interesting but it also took forever to get to the “who done it”. The narrater of the story remains anonymous till the end so I had to keep looking back to see if I just read who it was but didn‘t remember. Even the gender of the person telling the story remains anonymous it‘s annoying because it‘s not even relevant. 4/10 stars 7y
