Each chapter ended on an unnerving note, keeping my anxiety up. Auerbach did an excellent job maintaining the tensions while giving background to the character and the looming threat. Overall I enjoyed each chapter. However, the ending seemed both gut wrenching and yet anti-climactic. The main character never had direct interaction with the villain and never had a chance to confront them. That's what I was hoping for, however the tragic ending still lingers in my mind. no reviews | add a review
"Penpal began as a series of short and interconnected stories posted on an online horror forum. Before long, it was adapted into illustrations, audio recordings, and short films; and that was before it was revised and expanded into a novel. How much do you remember about your childhood? In Penpal, a man investigates the seemingly unrelated bizarre, tragic, and horrific occurrences of his childhood in an attempt to finally understand them. Beginning with only fragments of his earliest years, you'll follow the narrator as he discovers that these strange and horrible events are actually part of a single terrifying story that has shaped the entirety of his life and the lives of those around him"--Amazon.com.
