Really enjoyed this one! I should have read it so much sooner! But I don’t regret it. This maybe a new obsession! I love the characters, plot, etc.

Really enjoyed the book from start to finish. Author wrote this with great pace. This book is now one of my top books of the year for sure. Loved every second of this book

Matthew M. Bartlett is one of my favorite authors. His brand of weird seems to really gel with me and there was plenty of weird here to enjoy.

Three stars—mainly because I realize this just isn’t my type of book.

I was incredibly confused by the beginning of the book, but once I figured out the structure it was ok. Some of the stories of the patrons were good, creepy and interesting. Some just boring. I had no interest in the main story of villain? Wizard? Whatever he is who’s supposed to be coming back. His story just wasn’t captivating for me.

I will say, as a Massachusetts native, this is probably the most action Leeds has ever seen!

I didn't get it. It was weird, it kept jumping around, it didn't make sense, and it was short. Other people seem to think it was fun, so maybe I just didn't get it.
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this

Well done and each of the locals had their own distinct compelling story. Thanks for the arc! I quite liked this one wold recommend

Odd things are happening in Leeds, Massachusetts, home of the legendary deceased occultist, Abrecan Geist. It all seems to center on the Look Diner, where various citizens of Leeds seem to find just somehow find themselves there, after having experienced very disturbing happenings.

This brief premise doesn’t really even describe The Obsecration, one of the best horror novels I’ve read in years. Filled with imagery that, many times, is unforgettable, along with an incredible use of the English language (the author’s Lovecraftian style makes Lovecraft’s look juvenile), the novel is an unputdownable read. While various plot elements seem to jump all over the place without rhyme or reason, it all makes sense in the brilliant craziness of the last portion of the book. An amazing novel that I’m so thrilled to have read.

My profuse thanks to Broken Eye Books and to Netgalley for providing a digital copy of this great novel.

Where as many books to me haven't been very fun lately this one broke the streak of boredom I've been dealing with. Quick read that is just a fun and silly time through the whole thing.
