Can’t Wait Wednesday: These Nameless Things by Shawn Smucker

April 29, 2020 by Suzie Waltner 5 Comments

 

cant wait wednesday

Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally, they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. If you’re continuing with WOW, feel free to link those up as well! Find out more here

 

I discovered Shawn Smucker a couple of years ago but after reading one of his novels, I was hooked. These Nameless Things looks like a thought-provoking and maybe somewhat eerie read.

About the Book

Before Dan opened his door to find a wounded woman who had escaped from the tormentors in the mountain, his life had become rather quiet. He and the eight other people in the mostly abandoned town had become friends. They spent peaceful evenings around the campfire and even made vague plans to journey east one day and leave the ominous mountain behind.

But the woman’s arrival changes everything. 
Who is she? How does she know so much about Dan’s brother, who is still held captive in the mountain? Why are long-forgotten memories rising to the surface? And why does Dan feel so compelled to keep her presence in his house a secret?

Visionary writer Shawn Smucker is back with an unsettling story that invites us to consider two challenging questions: To what lengths will we go to assuage our own guilt? and Is there a limit to the things we will do for the people we love?

    I’m intrigued! Who are these tormentors on the mountain? Why is the town mostly abandoned? I have questions! I am adding this to me wish list. I hope you enjoy it when you read it. Stay safe and well.

      I know! That blurb does its job of intriguing the reader, doesn’t it?
