The Last Harvest by Kim Liggett is a book that I am very excited for! If this book proves to be anything as incredible as Blood and Salt, we are in for an epic ride. I am not usually a fan of horror novels, but Kim Liggett has a way of writing that is more thrilling than terrifying. I am very interested in how things are going to play out for Clay and whether he can overcome his father’s fate.
The Last Harvest by Kim Liggett
Title: The Last HarvestAuthor: Kim Liggett
Publisher: Tor Teen
Publication Date: January 10, 2017
“I plead the blood.”
Those were the last words seventeen-year-old golden boy quarterback Clay Tate heard rattling from his dad's throat when he discovered him dying on the barn floor of the Neely Cattle Ranch, clutching a crucifix to his chest.
Now, on the first anniversary of the Midland, Oklahoma slaughter, the whole town's looking at Clay like he might be next to go over the edge. Clay wants to forget the past, but the sons and daughters of the Preservation Society—a group of prominent farmers his dad accused of devil worship—won't leave him alone. Including Ali, his longtime crush, who suddenly wants to reignite their romance after a year of silence, and hated rival Tyler Neely, who’s behaving like they’re old friends.
Even as Clay tries to reassure himself, creepy glances turn to sinister stares and strange coincidences build to gruesome rituals—but when he can never prove that any of it happened, Clay worries he might be following his dad down the path to insanity...or that something far more terrifying lies in wait around the corner.

I’m not normally a fan of horror and thriller, but I did read Blood and Salt and enjoyed it. It wasn’t actually as scary as I was expecting, and I’m a huge scaredy-cat. I hope we both love this one! Awesome pick ^_^

I agree! I thought that I was going to be scared out of my wits with Blood and Salt, but it wasn’t really that scary. I am crossing my fingers that Kim gives us the same treatment with this one!

I love scary stories and this one seems like it is creepy and with some mystery. I agree that this book would be a thrilling read.
Blood and Salt was really superb. I so want this book as well.
