"To be honest, this book shook me. The writing is sharp and poetic. Avon doesn't flinch from digging deep into the murky waters of mental illness, trauma, and grief. Her characters feel painfully real, especially Cassie, who's written with a rawness that made my chest tighten. At times, the prose borders on lyrical, and that contrast—beauty laid over horror—makes it all the more unsettling. I appreciated that this wasn't a traditional horror story with jump scares. Instead, it's a slow burn, a psychological unraveling that lingers in your head long after the last page.

​

​Revived is not for the faint of heart. It's for readers who want more than a thrill—they want to be unsettled, to feel something. I'd recommend it to fans of psychological horror who aren't afraid of stories that peel back skin to reveal the mess underneath. If you like Shirley Jackson, early Stephen King, or Gillian Flynn's darker narratives, this book might just crawl under your skin in the best ways." - ★★★★ Literary Titan
