   A Riveting Supernatural Thriller in Hidden Pictures
   Hidden Pictures by Jason Rekulak tells the story of Mallory Quinn, a woman hired as a nanny for a five-year-old boy named Teddy. However, things take a strange and disturbing turn when Teddy’s drawings become increasingly sinister, leading Mallory to wonder if they are related to a long-unsolved murder.The beginning of the book was intriguing and drew me in immediately. It was fascinating to see the story unfold while experiencing Mallory’s journey. You could hear her inner voice starting to doubt her own sanity while taking care of Teddy. As Mallory tries to decipher Teddy’s drawings, the story takes an unexpected turn, and the plot becomes more intricate. The twist as the book comes closer to the end leaves you gasping for air, not sure of what to make of everything that’s happening.The characters are well fleshed out, and Mallory’s character is particularly impressive. She has a rich backstory, which adds an extra layer of depth to her character.Mallory’s quest to decipher Teddy’s drawings is both creepy and intriguing. As the story progresses, the drawings become more sinister, and the stakes increase. The book is intellectually stimulating and continuously surprising as each piece of the puzzle falls into place. Rekulak employs clever symbolism and metaphors to move the plot forward, making the book worthwhile to read.The storytelling style of Hidden Pictures leaves a lasting impression. It’s not only an original fusion of genres, but the narrative structure, formatting and use of illustrations is also so innovative that readers won’t forget about it quickly. Every element of the story comes together beautifully to form something unique, and the combination of local history with modern-day horror makes it more engaging.Hidden Pictures is a thrilling and intelligent horror novel. It’s a well-crafted novel that demonstrates Jason Rekulak’s mastery of storytelling, pacing, and character development. The supernatural elements of the book are well-conceived and deliberately shaped to compel the reader’s interest. And that ending…damn!

   GREAT BOOK!!!
   .I could NOT put this book down…..it was such a steady paced read that kept my attention the whole way through. I was so freaked out when I started reading the book that I finished reading the majority of it during the day. 🙂 I actually made my husband get out of bed and check the bedroom because I “thought” I heard a noise. This book had all my spiny senses on overload. It was riveting, and I thoroughly enjoyed the book until Chapter 25 where the author started unveiling the truth. It just went off the rails for me which stinks because up until that escapade; it was a really great book.It was like the parents did a 180 and their actions didn’t make sense to me.I do recommend reading the book version because the drawings are creepy and add to the suspense.I also recommend this book to anyone looking for a steady paced heart thrilling read.

   Raramente dou 5 estrelas a um livro, mas este cativou-me do princípio ao fim. Gostei muito das imagens assustadoras que levaram com que a experiência fosse diferente de outros livros. Para quem gosta de um livro de suspense e de bastante mistério recomendo!
