About this listen

A young woman’s secretive Midwestern town is engulfed by a mysterious plague of tornadoes every generation—and she must escape it before it claims her.

Stephen King’s The Mist meets David Lynch’s Twin Peaks in this inventive, mind-bending horror-thriller.

In a small town tucked away in the Midwestern corn fields, the adults whisper about Tornado Day. Our narrator, a high school sophomore, has never heard this phrase but she soon discovers its terrible meaning: a plague of sentient tornadoes is coming to destroy them.

The only thing that stands between the town and total annihilation is a teen boy known as the tornado killer. Drawn to this enigmatic boy, our narrator senses an unnatural connection between them. But the adults are hiding a secret about the origins of the tornadoes and the true nature of the tornado killer—and our narrator must escape before the primeval power that binds them all comes to claim her.

Audaciously conceived and steeped in existential dread, this genre-defying novel reveals the myth-bound madness at the heart of American life.

a creative if slightly dull story.

I saw this book in the horror section of barns and nobles and picked it up on a whim. I love the plot of this book growing up with a fear of tornadoes I thought the idea of someone fighting them off to save a town was really cool.

I liked the characters well enough the MC was a little wordy and melodramatic but she is a teenager so that checks out the rest of the cast was either kinda bland or did not play a big enough part in the story to worry about, I will how ever say I've skipped talking about the other two main characters for spoiler reasons.

the narrator was great no notes.

I said I picked this up in the horror section because I wanted to point out how much of a horror this book was not I dont think it even tried to be a little scary HOWEVER the little violence that was mentioned was very VERY well-written and described ( the scary movie the main character dreams about watching at the sleep over sounds like it would be a great splatterpunk book)


so TL"DR

great plot with meh characters and no horror.
