About the Book (from promotional materials from PUYB)
It happens each winter, and has for over 35 years. Every time the snow starts to fall late in the evening before a school day, the dreams begin again for Billy Stone. They are always the same - there's a dark tunnel, and there's blood, lots of blood, and someone is screaming.
In this chilling childhood tale, Billy, recounts the events of one unforgettable day in 1975. On that day, he and his friends played carefree in the snow, until an adventure gone awry left him far from home, staring death in the face, and running from a killer bent on keeping a horrible secret.
Set in a time before Amber Alerts, when horror stories were told around camp fires instead of on the nightly news, Snow Day is a blend of nostalgia and nightmare that makes us question if the good old days were really as good as we remember.
From a new voice in dark fiction comes a thriller about an idyllic childhood turned horrifying; a cautionary tale about how losing sight of the difference between feeling safe and being safe can lead to deadly consequences.
This Novella can be purchased at Amazon and soon other e-book and audio sellers!

I think I'd have a difficult time with this book. I don't like scary stories of any sort as I get quite freaked out. :( Does spike your curiosity though.
I will check it out. I'm not one for scary either but I do like suspense. I'm always looking for new books to read. Thanks!
Between an e-book and an actual book, I'd take the latter any day. Nothing beats the real thing for me. :)
im not a fan of scary but i think my mother would enjoy this :)
I love scary books! If he needs more reviews, send him my way :)
I haven't read a good thriller in a long time. Since not many of my friends read them, I don't get many recommended to me and I hate guessing which ones will be good ones. Thanks for the great review! Now I know this one will be worth my time.
Gosh, I hope you're getting print copies on all your book reviews girl!!
This one sounds interesting. Thrillers I'm afraid would give me nightmares, however, I am reading more these days.
May one day decide to borrow some of yours.
Lucky for the author to get to help out with those films.
When you said in your first paragraph that you were scared, I got really excited! I love scary! This sounds awesome and I'm going to get this book!
I never went to camp so I am not aware of the stories they told. I am curious about this book now though, I have started listening to audio books when I run, I might have to check this one out. Maybe it will scare me enough to make me run faster.
This sounds very interesting. I would like to read this one.
i love scary movies and novels.:) i would love to read this.
I love spooky books and mysteries, can't wait to read this, hopefully on my new Kindle :)))
