    Please, Wake Up

    I was very happy with this Book. Nicholas Beardsley, did an outstanding job with this being his 1st. Publishing. If you are looking for a page Turner, this is the book to get. The way he brings you into the house, and down to the barn, just keeps you reading. BOONE has that close friend, you would protect to the end, so you think. It is for sure a book that keeps you Reading and right with them from one event to the next, and page to page, and walking with Boone from day one. Nicholas Beardsley definitely hits the high marks in my opinion. From Cover to Cover, " Please, Wake Up " is just, jump right in and walk with Boone from page 1 to the end !!!! Impressive !!! Well done, Nicholas Beardsley.... A ++

    A Chilling Psychological Horror Read!

    This was a chilling psychological horror tale that tackles childhood trauma. I must warn you, this is a dark read, but man I couldn't stop reading it once I got deeper. This book hits me hard as I suffer from generational trauma and I know how Danny, the MC feels with the idea that he sees tragedy, but can't do anything about it. The only thing that keeps Danny stable is an old barn that his father passed down. The character building in this one is deep and I would say this is a character driven story more than plot, which is perfect for this title and horror subgenre. I truly felt terrible for what Danny had to go through. All I can say is that the game changer was his mother's journal. I won't say anything, but it's something that blows the plot wide open. More importantly this story tackles how important mental health truly is. For a short novel, it's a hard hitter. It gets an easy 5/5 stars. Can't wait to see more from this author!
