Title:
The Devouring
Author:
Simon Holt
Book Summary:
When dark creeps in and eats the light,
Bury your fears on Sorry Night,
For in the winter's blackest hours,
Comes the feasting of the Vours,
No one can see it, the life they stole,
Your body's here but not your soul...
Description:
When Reggie reads about the Vours in a mysterious old journal, she assumes they are just the musings of an anonymous lunatic. But when her little brother, Henry, begins to act strangely, it's clear that these creatures exist beyond a madwoman's imagination, and Reggie finds out what happens when fears come to life.
To save the people she loves, Reggie must learn to survive in a world of nightmares. Can she devour her own fears before they devour her?

Reason why you should read it:
The Devouring is freaky! You know those books that play out in your head like a movie? Well this is one of them. Simon Holt did an amazing job creating images from the words. I mean, I couldnt even put the book down! It captured my attention, I stayed up all night reading it. It was very well written. The book gives chills, after reading it, I was terrified! Thought of some people who could possibily be Vours in the human body, it drives you imagination.
