The Angel of Indian Lake (The Indian Lake Trilogy, #3)

Stephen Graham Jones

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

The final installment in the most lauded trilogy in the history of horror literature It’s been four years since Jade Daniels last set foot in Proofrock, Idaho. Since then, her reputation, and everything around Indian Lake, has changed dramatically. There’s a lot of unfinished business in Proofrock, from serial killer cultists to the rich trying to buy Western authenticity. But there’s one aspect of the savage history of Proofrock, Idaho, no one’s got the mettle to confront – no one except a final girl, making her last stand, this time for everything. New York Times bestselling author Stephen Graham Jones has crafted an epic horror trilogy of generational trauma and stolen hope. It’s the story of the American West written in blood. And it’s the story of one girl who doesn’t know how to give up.

    The angel of Indian Lake by Stephen Graham Jones is my least favorite book of 2024 so far. The reason is because they were moments when it felt like a sure to read it. This book is a part of a trilogy. The first two books have a slow pace, but the payoff in the end is worth it. Unfortunately, this book starts off well and then drags on in the middle. Goal of reading this book was to see how it was going to end. Now that I read the ending I’m just disappointed. Jade Daniels is a character who grew on me, but it felt at times her narration rambled on and on and on. In the previous books, jades narration did not go off in tangents. I rated this book 3 stars out of five because I gave it a try, but unfortunately, the ending did not satisfy me because it felt anticlimactic.

    Not sure what it was, but this novel felt more all-over-the-place and less compelling than the other two in the series. I love SGJ, and I love Jade, especially, but something just didn’t quite click for me in the same way here. 

    There were, nonetheless, some five star moments, lines, and bits that felt pulled straight out of a slasher film. I’m glad Jade gets her well-deserved rest, and hopefully Proofrock, ID does too.

    DNF @20%. I think I’m just too far away from the other books in the trilogy that it just didn’t catch my interest.
