Starve Acre by Andrew Michael Hurley is an interesting tale. As reading one of the comments on the back cover I thought that I might get shivers feelings, as like to freak me out. But I didn't find the scenes frightening enough for me. I think I was more expecting to experience much more sinister ghostly atmosphere, to send chills right through me, but I didn't experience any of that.
However Richard and Juliette's son Ewan did give me that edgy feeling with things that he disclosed to his father Richard. Something rather suspenseful does happen to Ewan.
After Ewan dies, with Juliette, believing that Ewan is still in the house, here is when I wanted to be freaked out, but I wasn't, I wanted it to be deeper and darker.
Overall I would recommend Starve Acre, as there certainly are a few things here to make you see that this topic is an original. I am definitely looking forward to what Andrew Michael Hurley will come up with next.
