Owen King leans into his family legacy with a quietly chilling and morally complex tale. Letter Slot follows a teen boy at his breaking point — struggling to care for his sick mother, desperate for change, and drawn into an otherworldly correspondence when he drops a heartfelt letter into an abandoned mail slot. The story blends grief, wish fulfillment, and creeping horror in a way that makes you question: What would you trade to make things better? And for whom?

There’s no neat ending here — just consequences, eerily delivered. The atmosphere simmers with the quiet tension of suburban desperation and uncanny possibility. It’s a strange, sad, and morally grey horror fable that lingers long after the last page.

A stark reminder to be careful what you wish for! And the ending made my jaw drop! Thank you to NetGalley and Amazon Original Stories for the opportunity to read the eARC in exchange for my honest review! ❤️
