Stolen Tongues
A romantic cabin getaway doesn't go exactly as planned. High up on the windswept cliffs of Pale Peak, Faye and Felix celebrate their new engagement. But soon, a chorus of ghastly noises erupts from the nearby woods: the screams of animals, the cries of children, and the mad babble of a hundred mournful voices. A dark figure looms near the windows in the dead of night, whispering to Faye. As the weather turns deadly, Felix discovers that his terrified fiancée isn't just mumbling in her sleep - she's whispering back.
Originally a contest-winning story on reddit.com's horror community NoSleep, Stolen Tongues has received widespread acclaim and is now being adapted into a feature film.

Readers say *Stolen Tongues* by Felix Blackwell is a gripping horror novel praised for its dark, suspenseful atmosphere, vivid imagery, and genuinely ...
The beginning of this book had amazing potential and actually creeped me out to the point of tears. Unfortunately, the second half of this book was where it went from a 5 star read to a 3 star read. The mystery of the voices and the noises was the best part. Once things started getting explained away, I lost the fearfulness that the book gave me initially.
I was terrified throughout the audiobook. The voices, the descriptions. So spooky I loved it, wish it had a better ending. I think some parts felt a little bit repetitive and I expected more out of it near the end. Almost felt like a rushed ending. But it genuinely enjoyed it and got scared while reading it!
Interesting but I kept waiting for IT to happen. Had some things to make better but it wasn't followed up on. Just eh.
four stars for how often this book made me tense and uncomfortable. but four stars also for how lackluster the ending was.
