Fear wins March by default because it was the only one I finished… Not a terrible read, I gave it 3 ⭐️s. I think that rating still stands.

A surprisingly short read. It felt like something you‘d find in a literature textbook in High School. It wasn‘t bad, but I also don‘t think it lived up to the hype from Stephen King on the back cover. Much of it read like a fever dream, being creepy for the sake of being creepy. I think it would be GREAT to read out loud around a campfire at night. It at least intrigued me enough to be open to picking up another Hubbard novel in the future.
Starting my first L. Ron Hubbard book today. The high praise from these other authors is what got me to buy the book years ago, so here‘s hoping it lives up to my expectations… 😬
Never read any by L. Ron Hubbard before but I was drawn to this one by the cover, the summary and the quotes on the back.
"If you've not read Fear before, I urge you to do so. Don't even wait for a dark and stormy night. This is one of the really, really good ones." - Stephen King
"A true scare!" - Ray Bradbury

Written in a fashion that makes the reader question if the protagonist is suffering from a mental breakdown, demonic attacks, or both. I read this book twice in a row, trying to find any clue that would justify one reasoning or the other. In the end, it's up to the reader to conclude. Loved it! Fast paced and creepy.
