There’s something in the woods of Point Pleasant, West Virginia…
Ben Wisehart grew up in the idyllic town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia. An early encounter with the supernatural shaped his worldview and served as the catalyst for his career as a bestselling horror writer.
Thirteen years after abandoning his home, Ben returns to the town to investigate the apparent reemergence of the terrifying creature responsible for his childhood nightmares.
In Point Pleasant, Ben is confronted not only by the town’s resident monster, the Mothman, but also by his former best friend, Sheriff Nicholas Nolan.
Together, Ben and Nicholas uncover the mystery of the monster in the woods and discover that the ghosts that haunt us are sometimes made of flesh and blood.
And sometimes, they lead us home.
An illustrated edition of the novel is also available /dp/B00EYVYV24/
Point Pleasant edition by Jen Archer Wood Literature Fiction eBooks
I really enjoyed this book. When I first saw this book promoted on Facebook, what drew me to it was the length of the book, 565 pages. The write up preview only gave so much away, but sounded interesting enough to take the chance. It was well worth taking.Something winged and menacing is in the woods outside Point Pleasant. Young Ben and his best friend Nic venture into the woods one night to search for it, and it finds them.
Years later, Ben and Nic have a falling out and Ben leaves town never to return. After years of being a best selling author, Ben is losing his mojo and returns home to possibly write about the creature for his next book.
Back in Point Pleasant, Ben comes face to face with his father, his past, Nic, and the creature in the woods.
Ben and his love interest are both men. They've known each other a long time. They genuinely care for and about each other, but they have both hurt the other and been hurt by the other, so they're wary of just what the relationship is. They are grown ups and mostly act like it in their relationship, not having to constantly be groping each other or having sex every ten pages as so many m/m stories have them do.
But the bulk of the story is about the creature in the woods, and the havoc is wreaks, and wreak it does. Something big is coming and somebody has to do something.
The writer does a great job of sustaining the story. When something of note happens around 20 percent of the story, I wondered just how they were going to keep the story going for such a long book, if such a thing has already happened. I did that a couple of times, and was never disappointed, and the story never dragged. People, places, and things that were mentioned from when Ben was a child, and when he first returned to town, no matter how offhand it seemed at the time, all made reappearances later in the story, sometimes in impressive ways. The relationship between the main characters was also distributed through the story very well. Secondary characters are developed and effective.
The wrap up of the book near the end was necessary and I know why it was done, but only then did it seem to go on a little long, but it had a payoff.
It's odd that a book that was this long would still make me want more of these characters. But I think it would be too much for them to have another peril like this befall them, so I will be thankful for what I got in this book.
Very good book.

Point Pleasant edition by Jen Archer Wood Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
At twelve, Ben and his best friend Nic were chased through the woods by the Mothman, the terrifying winged creature that legend claims has been lurking around the woods of Point Pleasant for years. At twenty, Ben leaves town and doesn't look back. At thirty-three, Ben is a successful horror writer (inspired by a certain encounter with a creature when he was a child) who feels like he's losing his spark. So for the first time in thirteen years, he returns home to Point Pleasant for inspiration and to finally solve the mystery of the Mothman. Not only does he once again come face to face with the monster from his childhood, he also reunites with his father, who disapproves of his life choices, and Nic, who was half the reason Ben left in the first place. And if all of that wasn't bad enough, something horrible is brewing and Ben seems to be the only one trying to stop it.
First of all, wow. This book honestly blew me away. I wasn't sure what to expect starting, but I was sucked in pretty quickly. The plot was a bit slow at times, but a lot of that was Ben trying to figure out exactly what the Mothman really is and where it came from. The author put a lot of effort into the characters discovering the true nature of the Mothman and let me tell you, I certainly wasn't expecting it. And Ben, oh Ben. I absolutely adored him. I adored all of the characters actually, though I have to say I wanted to throttle both Nic and Ben at times. They hurt each other very badly thirteen years ago, so their reunion isn't exactly a happy one. Not to mention Nic, who is now the sheriff, seems hell-bent on sweeping the Mothman thing under the rug. Obviously, Ben doesn't take this very well. They seemed determined to fight each other tooth and nail on just about everything. While the main focus of the book is definitely the Mothman, I still really enjoyed watching the relationship between them develop.
Overall, if you like a little horror and a lot of mystery, you'll find this a satisfying read.
This book was a great read. I spent about 20 years living not far from Point Pleasant, WV, and I have loved stories of the Mothman for a while. This was a great suspense paranormal read with an excellent m/m romance plot. I loved Wood's approach to the Mothman legend. It was a unique take.
Beautiful. I want to see this turned into a movie and want the actors to capture every emotions mentioned in this lovely story. Wow amazing storytelling. The love they have is out of this world. I cried for their pain and hurt for them. I laughed with them. I wanted to smack them upside their head when they're being stubborn especially Ben lol. Nicholas, sweet and caring Nicholas. You love Ben so much I wish I can have someone like you. Thank u for this book. It going into my Keeper collection
At age 12, Ben and his best friend Nic go into the woods in search of their town's mysterious winged monster, known as "Mothman," and end up being chased out of the woods by this creature. This instills a great fear in them towards the Mothman. Years later, Ben and Nic have a falling out and Ben leaves town, moving to Boston to become a famous horror writer, using his encounter with the Mothman & his childhood experience as inspiration. While seeking a jump start for a new book he goes home and reconnects with his dad and Nic, but something in town is brewing and the Mothman has been appearing in town to certain residents-in the past Mothman sightings are always a bad omen of a devastating occurrence. Ben needs to join forces with Nic, now the town sheriff, and talk him out of trying to cover up the whole thing. Someone needs to find the Mothman and solve the mystery before more people are hurt. Great mystery, never gets dull or slow moving even with the length. Loved the story and the characters, especially the town's people like Tucker and Andrew, Ben's dad. Definitely a fun and scary read.
