## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It runs in the family
*by M***R on December 30, 2024*

Ever reliable for a thrilling, twisty page-turner, here McMahon fulfills the rich yet all too rarely tackled promise of full-on Gothic horror, rural Vermont style. Tracing an ominous mystery over three generations, intercutting between timelines, the author builds up a steady burn that becomes almost frustratingly compelling before you know it.*vague spoilers* It doesn't become fully explicit just *what kind* of book McMahon is writing until practically the eleventh hour, though...well, let's just say, all the cues were present to indicate that things would play out within a particular set of narrative parameters. But no, the author is 100% playing by her own rules, just plain *goes for it*, and I'm so glad that she did.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Story but ending falls short!
*by J***. on August 10, 2015*

First off let me say I LOVE Jennifer McMahon novels! She is spellbinding at creating atmospheric tales, which many times are simply allegories for situations the adolescent minds of the characters in novels cannot comprehend. McMahon’s novels tend to examine how a character is a product of their upbringing and experiences. “The Winter People” was one of her novels that veered from allegories and went for the supernatural. The unexplained phenomenon, family history, and spooky tales was absolutely gorgeous. "The Night Sister" is carrying on in that tone. The story is set in London, Vermont, where The Slaters operate the Tower Motel, a quaint place that attracts a steady clientele during the 1950s. The Slaters have two children, Sylvie and her sister, Rose. The novel opens many years later, in 2013, with Rose's daughter, Amy, in a state of sheer terror and panic. We have no idea why she is so frightened, but the author implies that it is due to her past. McMahon goes back and forth in time, foreshadowing dire events to come. Are monsters real or are they the products of an overactive imagination? "The Night Sister" is suspenseful and scary, often revealing more about the dark side of human nature.Sadly, this is the first novel of McMahon’s that I feel has suffered what I personally call “the Gillian Flynn Syndrome” fantastic start which pulls you in all to lead to an ending that falls short. Maybe I built up the release of this novel too much… I think it was a waste of a read but expected more from such a compelling writer. I still Jennifer McMahon!

### ⭐⭐⭐ What? This book leaves you with questions...but not the compelling/fun kind
*by S***L on September 7, 2016*

Spoilers!! ...This was my first book by this author and I read it in one day. I'll spare you by skipping the plot/character/setting details and get down to it: the ending is disappointingly dull. And I still have many questions, such as: 1. Why wasn't the hypnotism angle ever fully developed/explained? 2. Why is Amy described as behaving as she does the night of the incident (photograph in pocket/gun/reciting creepy poem up the stairs) if L. is locked away/medicated at night? 3. Two young people disappear (Sylvia and her lover), yet the police don't investigate? ...etc. Overall, while the writing was good, the story is frustrating in its predictability and execution. I'd move this one to the bottom of your stack if your reading time is limited.
