The three sisters are all skinny, beautiful and have ravenous appetites that allow them to eat without getting fat. This is where House of Hollow and I really disagree. Looking for more book reviews? Check out my review directory! Intrigue – 4/10 This would have made a great portal fantasy and I kinda wish Seanan McGuire would give this concept a go. There wasn’t enough mystery and the plot twist was clear from the beginning. To be honest, I’ve already forgotten the plot of this book. I’m not sure if I’ll read some of Sutherland’s other books, we will have to see. It was repetitive in places but it was solid. Eventually, everything smelled like milk and death or looked like milk and death and I am not here for it. Sutherland used too much repetitive language to describe the setting and it desensitized me completely. The atmosphere was creeping in the beginning, but it got old fast. All of the plot things happened to her, and I just felt frustrated being told and not shown. We follow Iris’ POV, but honestly, Grey’s story was so much more interesting. I also felt like this book followed the wrong main character. All three of the main characters, the sisters, were just such caricatures. The only one that had a shred of potential was Tyler (poor Tyler). I feel very meh about the characters in House of Hollow. All opinions are my own.įind the purchase links here! House of Hollow Review Characters – 4/10 I received a review copy from Jonthan Ball Publishers. As they brush against the supernatural they realise that the story they’ve been told about their past is unravelling and the world that returned them seemingly unharmed ten years ago, might just be calling them home.
They aren’t the only ones looking for her though. But when Grey goes missing without a trace, leaving behind bizarre clues as to what might have happened, Iris and Vivi are left to trace her last few days.
People find them disturbingly intoxicating, unbearably beautiful and inexplicably dangerous.īut now, ten years later, seventeen-year-old Iris Hollow is doing all she can to fit in and graduate high school on time – something her two famously glamorous globe-trotting older sisters, Grey and Vivi, never managed to do. They have insatiable appetites yet never gain weight. Then, their blue eyes slowly turned black. Ever since they disappeared on a suburban street in Scotland as children only to return a month a later with no memory of what happened to them, odd, eerie occurrences seem to follow in their wake.
Goodreads Description: Iris Hollow and her two older sisters are unquestionably strange. Let’s jump in!Ĭontent Warnings: A whole bunch, check them out here! The cover is gorgeous and the premise really intrigued me, but alas. Hi friends, I hope you’re doing well! This week I’m posting my House of Hollow Review! Honestly, I was a little disappointed in this book.
