Wow.I can't make myself write a synopsis of this book because it wouldn't do it any justice. Reading this book was like seeing a car accident and not being able to look away. It was sick and twisted and disturbing but I couldn't make myself stop reading it. I needed to know what the out come would be. And it almost feels wrong saying it was a good book because it was so messed up, but it was, it was one of the best books I have read this year. I felt for all the characters, was saddened by the fact that there are people like Spencer running around for real, and to know what Kaley and her sister Shan went through is something that really happens.
If there was any editing or grammar errors my brain didn't register them at all. I was so drawn in by what these poor girls where going through that I couldn't notice anything else.
The book was told from multiple points of view and they all flowed together seamlessly. You were never left floundering.
Would I recommend this book? Yes, as sad as this book is, it also puts into perspective the things you try to not notice that are all around us all the time.

Psycho Save Us The Psycho Series Book 1 edition by Chad Huskins Axel Torvenius William Fruman Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews
I spent a formative part of my professional career as an acquisitions librarian. Unfortunately, this left me somewhat jaded when it comes to plots, characters and story lines. Rarely do I read something so different, so new, so fresh, so very strange, that I cannot begin to guess what's going to happen on the next page, much less at the end of the book. Believe me, Psycho Save Us keeps the reader guessing. There's no putting it down. I haven't bought a book in years I either download free or borrow. But I immediately bought the sequel to this, Psycho Within Us. That said, this book will not appeal to everyone. If you love your fiction unwatered down, horrific, challenging, disturbingly real and mindbendingly surreal, with a protagonist both provocative and despicable whom you still root for, then give this a try. I loved the earliest Stephen King the same way I love the earliest Chad Huskins. He has found his niche, and it's mesmerizing.
At first, when I started reading Psycho Save Us, I thought surely this was what it was like reading a Dirty South Donald Goines' novel, and even though Donald Goines was one of my favorite authors and inspiration, this was not truly the reason why I chose to read this book, but I trudged on the imagery in which me myself am familiar with. I imagined "Snow On The Bluff" and read this book feeling as though protagonist in that movie did not do his neighborhood justice. This was what a real ghetto looked and felt like and these were children of it. But at first, it wasn't them that interested me, nor was it really the other characters that interested me so much either. But Spencer, the psycho was what truly gained my attention. I found myself identifying with him, wondering to myself if I'm a psycho as well, and any character that can do that, well he's magnificently written, to the point where he was extremely real, and he was what kept me going through Psycho Save Us. And just when I thought it was another hood story, things took a very unexpected turn. So unexpected I couldn't put it down, the mere shock of it made me read the rest of the book in its entirety all in one day sitting against the wall with my back glued to the wall. I couldn't possibly put it down until it ended and honestly I can't remember the ending because it disappointed me. Not the ending he built it up to be nor one good enough to shock me into loving it. All in all I liked it, sure it could use a little editing and the ending wasn't what was to be expected but overall it was a great read and a cautionary tale to all meth head mothers beware of sending your daughters out to the store at midnight. A lot of them won't be as lucky to have "The Charm" as Kaley and Shan were.
When picking up a book by an independent writer you always know you're taking a bit of a gamble. Will the writing be up to par? Will the story flow make sense? Will the plot have any sort of drive? What's even more of a risk is picking up a book by an independent writer that is so incredibly difficult to slip into a neat genre definition. It's easy to give a pass to a novel that is written in a genre you have a soft spot for, but if you can exactly define a category for Psycho Save Us, then you're a far better man than I.
So, here we are. I found myself with this novel that I knew little about, by an author I knew next to nothing about, written in a genre that can't be defined, and there was only one thing for me to do. Read. I am a slow, ponderous reader. It takes me longer to finish a book then most anyone I know, and yet I finished this story in three days. I flipped digital page after digital page, refusing to stop, needing to see what would happen next because this story was unlike any I'd ever read before. Unto the very last page of the book I wasn't entirely certain how thing were going to end for the main characters. I loved this book.
The perspective rolls between a few different main characters, and each feels unique and compelling. Huskins knows how to create characters that live and breath (and occasionally cackle manically), and he knows how to shape drama and keep a reader on the edge of their seat. He'll throw kindling on the fire of your rage, only to quench it a moment later in a chill sorrow that will make your heart honestly ache. The blending of supernatural elements into a world that is too painfully real is done with such dark grace that it is immediately believable and visceral.
You will applaud a psychopath as he unleashes his psychotic glee on a horde of vileness worse than himself, and you'll feel guilty a moment later for finding yourself in the cheering section of someone who can do such awful things. You will feel your own hope rise only to be smashed again and again as terrible things grow into even more terrible things until the novel finally reaches a hellish peak of insanity from which you're not sure there is any return.
Gods, it's a fabulous ride. For $1 or for $10, this story is ABSOLUTELY worth your time.
Cautionary This book contains some dark, horrible things, but they are in service to delivering this story, and it wouldn't be the same without them.
Wow.
