When the Wolf Comes Home by Nat Cassidy
Hello beautiful people! Welcome to a new review! For this review, I get into horror writer Nat Cassidy’s creepy and hard-to-put-down book, When the Wolf Comes Home. While not the first of his reads I have picked up, I really enjoyed this one and found it to be unique, scary, and riveting. It made me really look forward to checking out more of his books in the future.
Main Characters
Jess: Our main girl and, honestly, one of my favourite parts of this book, she’s messy, flawed, and emotional. Her empathy drives a lot of her decisions, sometimes for the better, sometimes not. When Jess meets the boy, she is brought into a horror scene she never expected. In an attempt to save him, she is pushed to intense limits and is forced to put herself in danger to try and help save the day.
The boy: Running away from a monster, the boy crosses paths with Jess, and is forced to face his fears in no way a child ever should, but he also has much more control than we may suspect.
Cookie: Jess’s mother, who, while maybe not always the best mom, pulls through for her daughter when it’s needed the most.
The man: The boy’s father, who follows Jess and him in an attempt to get him back, however, follows at a distance due to the danger that follows his son.
My Review
As mentioned before, I’ve checked out some of Nat Cassidy’s other books and found them to be scary, but extremely enjoyable. When the Wolf Comes Home is an action-filled, thrilling novel, filled with horror and some people’s worst nightmares. The characters are enjoyable (and sometimes aggravating), but the plot itself is unique, and unlike anything I’ve ever dived into before. I gave it an 8/10 rating overall and am looking forward to diving into more of Cassidy’s spooky tales in the future.
The story follows Jess as she gets pulled into a deeply unsettling and increasingly terrifying situation involving a young boy and something not quite right. What starts as concern quickly turns into something much darker, with reality bending in ways that feel both surreal and way too real at the same time. As things escalate, the book leans hard into fear, what it does to us, how it changes us, and the choices we make when we’re pushed to our limits. Jess is forced to fight her greatest fears to protect the boy, but she also questions if she can really protect him from himself, or the realities of his world. The boy must question if he can fight off the monsters that haunt him, or crumble to the fear of his reality and what is chasing him.
As mentioned before, I’ve checked out other books of Cassidy’s, and when When the Wolf Comes Home came across my way, I knew I had to check it out. I saw lots of positive reviews and felt like it lived up to the hype for sure. This book is so unique. Like, genuinely nothing I’ve read before. The plot is wild in a way that somehow still works and makes sense, and I was completely locked in watching it unfold. The creativity here is insane, and the way everything comes together? So satisfying. It’s heartbreaking at different points, intense in others, but also loving and sweet in others. It has its gory parts, and some areas are a bit harder to stomach, but if you read lots of horror like I do, it’s really nothing crazy.
It’s fast-paced, emotional, and straight-up creepy. Not just surface-level scary, either, it gets under your skin. The kind of book where you feel uneasy even when nothing is technically happening because you are just waiting for that other shoe to drop. What really stood out to me is how much it focuses on fear. Not just the classic there’s something scary chasing you theme, but how fear actually changes people. The decisions, the reactions, the spiral, it all felt very intentional and honestly a little too real at times.
Jess carried this book for me. I loved her. She’s not perfect, and that’s exactly why she works so well. Her empathy, even when it complicates things, made everything hit harder emotionally. And yeah, the kid can be annoying, but in a way that makes sense. He’s a child dealing with trauma, and the book doesn’t shy away from that. If anything, it adds to the emotional weight.
This is not a feel-good book. Like, at all. My heart hurt more than once. But it’s a damn good one.
I had such a good time with this, and it definitely solidified that I need to keep reading more from Nat Cassidy.
Has anyone else checked out When the Wolf Comes Home, or any other of Nat Cassidy’s reads? What did you think, and what others would you recommend?

Exclusive: NIGHTMARE BURGER Cover Reveal Illustrated By The Legendary Graham Humphreys

Just read a couple Jennifer Thorne books back to back. I really like her writing style. She does amazing dialog and interpersonal conflict.
Lute was especially great. So good that I immediately decided to see what else she'd written.
Diavola got off to a fantastic start, but petered out a bit after the midpoint. Still worth a read, but I personally connected with Lute more.

Kicked off #SpookySeason with The September House by Carissa Orlando. It was a fun read, sometimes quirky and funny, sometimes spooky, sometimes heartbreaking. The voice was excellent. Very immersive. I didn't love the ending (which I'll elaborate on in a hidden spoilery post in a minute) but everything up to the last two chapters worked brilliantly. (And the end wasn't terrible, just not what I wanted, so maybe that's on me 🤷) Definitely recommend.

I really enjoyed Shaun Hamill's "The Dissonance." His previous book, "A Cosmology of Monsters" really blew my mind. That's always going to be hard to top (so creative and original!) but this definitely had the same level of world-building and fantastic characters that are easy to connect with.

Finished up Josh Malerman's "Incidents Around the House" this morning. He really nails the child voice of the narrator. Very immersive POV. And there are lots of super creepy scenes. The overall story is a little basic, like, if you took away the individual creepy scenes and the immersive voice, and just read a synopsis, you'd be like, "I think I've read this already." But the writing makes up for a lot, and it's definitely worth checking out.
-
Just finished Paul Tremblay's "Horror Movie." It was a really cool audiobook adaptation. There are pieces of a screenplay in it, and in the audiobook, those sections are done with a full cast as a table-read. They flub lines, and you can hear pages turning. It works really well.
Great story. Highly recommend.
I actually listened to it twice, back-to-back because the first time I was in the midst of covid and my fever-addled brain missed a lot.

A short story collection of horror delights by Aussie author Darcy Coates Author I absolutely adore her horror works and think she is master at her horror craft. My favourite story of this collection was Untamed Things, followed closely by A Box of Tapes, and Ghost Camera. If you're looking for a taste test of Coates' works, give this one a go!https://readbookrepeat.wordpress.com/2024/06/30/ghost-camera-by-darcy-coates/

Finished reading Hidden Pictures by Jason Rekulak today. It was pretty good. It took most of the book to get to the part that made it unique, and that left the bulk of the book as a pretty basic haunting story (which is fun enough, but not groundbreaking.)
Still, a fun read worth checking out, and when it finally decided to be unique, it got suddenly really cool.

Montague Rhodes James [1862-1936]
Another impressive writer I discover from H.P. #Lovecraft's recommendation in his book "Supernatural Horror In Literature".
Jame's ghosts stories are so fascinating to read. Love it
