The Inn
The Inn has a secret.
It is winter, the coldest remembered. But at the Inn, fires burn bright and food welcomes the hungry. For centuries the Inn has been the family business but when Bradon refuses to take over it causes a rift between father and son. With tensions mounting and the snow deepening outside, Neveah, wife, and mother, wrestles with a guilt she has carried for far too long. Still, kegs are tapped and while the patrons at the Inn slowly settle in, the tensions between the family mount.
But when an old woman arrives exhibiting a strange and powerful force over Bradon, urging on his baser instincts, the true horrors of the Inn begin. Told through multiple perspectives, The Inn is a fast-paced, edge of your seat fantasy thriller where what people say is not what they do and where violence waits behind every door.

Definitely unique and the first of its kind that I have ever read. The Inn is haunting and different.

Too disjointed.
Never really sure what happened. The story has no plotline to follow, no one character to aline with. There is nothing to suggest why the chaos is happening now. Crazy weird. Not bad really, just not my kind of writing.

DNF @ 17%
Which is rather unfortunate as I enjoyed the premise and really wanted things to improve. As I read on there were more and more editing errors, including general grammatical structure, past tense/present tense and there were even a few misused words. I kept trying to let stuff go to be able to read it to the end but realized pretty quickly after a character's tense changed midsentence that it was impossible. I hope the author gets a REALLY good editor and releases an edited version in the future.
FYI - this was a freebie through Freebooksy.

Scary
This book kept me wanting more. Unique, it is interesting, you can't put it now. Almost like the inn is telling the story.

I didn't like. Was told from 9 different characters, back and forth.

The Inn
Good story line, but hard to follow. To many points of view, to much of the story left hanging. No finish to any of it.

Interesting
I thought this would be a horror novel and in a way it is. Just not your standard scary story. Mr. Calmes has told his story in a unique way. Give this one a try.

Very poorly written and makes no sense. It seemed like some good possibilities in the beginning but just got stranger and by the end was too confusing.

When I first started reading this book I was drawn in instantly. It seemed so poetic and the way things like a tree were described just kept me wanting to read more and more.
