The Omen

Actual rating: 2.5

CW/TW: murder, gore

I want to note that I have never seen the movie that this book is a novelisation for. 

Overall, I found this audiobook underwhelming. Don't get me wrong - this book is well-written, the story was interesting and full of demons and '666', the plot made sense, wasn't too wordy or too vague. And yet, it was only ever okay for me. I couldn't become engaged which took away any sort of creep-factor the story had. 

This was definitely partially due to the narrator. Despite being clear and easy to follow, there was something about her 'smokey', sing-songy voice which just took away from the story for me.

Other than that, it's hard to put my finger on what threw me off but this wasn't the book for me.

Thank you to Libro.FM and the publisher for providing me with a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review!
