BLOG TOUR REVIEW
Review for 'The Boatmore Butcher' by L.Stephenson
Read and reviewed for L.Stephenson, AM Ink Publishing, Dark Ink Books and Zooloo's Book Tours.
Publication date 31st August 2023.
This is Stephenson's DEBUT novel, not that you would ever think that!!! I cannot wait to get stuck into his next guaranteed success and I just hope he is busy writing it as I write this!!!
This novel consists of 3 parts. The first consists of 14 chapters, the second has 13 chapters and the final part contains 12 chapters. The chapters are short in length so easy to read 'just one more chapter' before bed...OK, I know yeah right, but still just in case!
OMG!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE, LOVE ,LOVED THIS BOOK, AN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, GOTHIC, CHILLING, GRUESOMME AND PAGE TURNING EXPLOSIVE MUST READ HORROR!!!
This book is extremely well written with vivid and evocative descriptions that really put you in the storyline, feeling the hair on your arms raise and putting you on the edge of your seat!!! The storyline is just as stunning as the cover!!!
The first thing I have got to say is an absolutely HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to the amazing author L.Stehenson!! I was absolutely mind blown when I had finished this epic page turner and I went to add the rest of his books to my Amazon wish list only to discover that THIS is his DEBUT novel!!! I mean just WOW fairplay!!! If THIS is what you can create for your very first book then I just cannot wait to see what on Earth (or would it be hell?) you will come out with next!! This is definitely THE BEST DEBUT book I have ever read and it is also my favourite horror book of all times!!! Just OMG!!! The gruesome, unique and I must say, extremely clever, killings, the backstory, the action, the characters, the absolutely MIND BLOWING TWISTS AND TURNS!!! This book NEEDS to be turned into a movie and I hope to God he is busy writing his next book because I need them in my life now. The looks I was getting from my partner because of the amount of times I shouted out 'WTAF!!' , 'OMFG!!' and 'No FLexking way did THAT just happen' I seriously lost count. I mean seriously I cannot describe just how AMAZING this book is!!! There are just no words. I mean I'll try but my advice is stop reading this review and GET YOUR COPY NOW!!!

As you can tell I absolutely LOVED this addictive, explosive, creepy, horrific, chilling page turner!!! I honestly loved absolutely everything about it from the characters to the settings to the history of the characters. It was just one heck of an amazing read!!! Filled with suspense, tragedy, murders I have never seen in any other book or film, heartbreak, twists, friendship, gruesomeness, spine tingling moments, gothic settings, mystery and so much more this book is an absolutely explosive and epic book!! I absolutely love, love, LOVED the unique storyline!! I have read so many books that it is getting harder and harder for me to find a truly unique plot but Stephenson absolutely smashes it out of the park with this one!! He manages to weave the characters past and history and the present chapters together absolutely perfectly to create an absolute addictive, chilling page turner that there was no way I could put down until I had finished it. I picked it up and even though I kept telling myself just one more chapter I just could not put it down as every time I went to something happened which meant I had to read just one more again until I ended up reading it in one sitting having been glued to my kindle for a few hours!! Stephenson's evocative writing skills and descriptions really brought the storyline to life and I just cannot wait to get hooked into his next book!!! I have just never come across a book or movie anything like this one and I doubt I will again!!!! I just genuinely love, love, LOVED IT!!!

I absolutely loved meeting each and every one of the characters and getting to know them all and their history. I was completely invested in him throughout and Stephenson's fantastic evocative writing skills and descriptions ensured he came to life in front of my eyes. The fact that this is Stephenson's debut novel yet he has managed to create these amazing, unique and strong characters is just absolutely amazing!!! I really enjoyed getting to meet all of the characters and learning all about their histories and discovering their stories. The friendship, love, hate, anger, terror, heartbreak, fear and so, so much more flow through the characters and into your fingers as you travel on this journey into Boatmore.

Author Bio
L. Stephenson has been telling stories of killers and boogeymen to his friends and writing them on his computer since the summer before he began high school. A university degree in Film & TV Screenwriting, a handful of anthologies and a novella later, and not much has changed, it seems!
Stephenson's first short story was published as part of a Halloween-themed collection by Dark Ink back in 2018. Nearly five years later, terror just came full circle as the author has returned home to Dark Ink to release his debut slasher novel, The Boatmore Butcher.
