New Hope edition by Steve Hobbs Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews
I knew the author in college many moons ago and I had no idea that he had aspirations to writing a novel. Naturally when I found out I brought the book immediately. I must say I'm glad I did. Mr. Hobbs has out done himself in this story of 17 year old Miri Jones, who, when dealing with her average everyday life and peers in the confines of a small Maine town must suddenly grow up. She unexpectedly comes across a body while jogging and the adventure It leads her on is compelling to say the least. I highly recommend this novel to fans of horror novels and coming of age tales.
I read this in three sittings, which is a rarity for me these days. Time just doesn't allow it. I had to find out what happened next. Steve Hobbs does an amazing job weaving the tale together and keeping the flow tight and fast. There were some surprising twist that I didn't see coming. Highly recommend this to anyone who likes a well done, interesting tale
I wasn't supposed to like this book because it had sinister creatures. Not a fan. But I wanted to challenge myself to try a new genre so I took it on. I started it, put it down, started it again, and I'm so glad that I did. At first the personalities (helpful that I thought to jot down names from the outset) seemed flat because of the type of reading I'd grown accustomed to. I couldn't relate to them. The writing puzzled me. Again I was confronting an unfamiliar writing style. Descriptions that at first seemed non-essential soon became fascinating to me. Steve Hobbs was drawing me into his story. I began paying closer attention. Reference of real life musicians at first felt intrusive, then I realized how their mention kept me connected to real time in a plot that wove in and out of supernatural fiction. Why wasn't I repulsed at the blood and relishing of eaten corpses? It was, I think, because of the exquisite writing skills of the author. I can envision young people loving the discussion of this book, and they will. What surprised me was that I loved it, too. I've been enlightened. Interesting that I kept thinking about how much the author got a kick out of writing his story. So funny that I know what kind of music he likes.
I read this book from cover to cover smiling at the 1980s references and the typical Maineisms. The story starts off with an intriguing murder mystery and the pace throughout the novel is good. I liked the unlikely group of teenagers that come together to save the town. The involvement of a special government agency brings in some more interesting characters. Both the characters and the plot are well developed, and the mystery is cleverly solved. I enjoyed reading this YA horror and supernatural story of monsters in Maine.
All the feels! This book takes me back to my childhood. Quite literally, as it's set in the 80s. With all the charming nostalgia of Stranger Things, the Nancy Drew heroine, and the campy group of kids fighting vampires that's reminiscent of Lost Boys, there really wasn't much not to love about this book.
If you are looking for a fun read with all those feels, then you will love New Hope. There weren't any deep questions, and I figured out a lot of things pretty quickly, but it still was a nice break and a fun read.
I have a confession I have never read any of the Twilight books and I have only seen about 1.39 of the movies. That said, I can’t imagine any of those stories are as entertaining and well written as New Hope by Steve Hobbs. Hobbs invites us to a small town in Maine and introduces us to a group of teens in way over their collective heads. The story is full of action and adventure, and includes a unique twist on traditional vampire mythologies. As a fan of The Lost Boys, Stephen King, and all things eighties, I was hooked from the first page. I was even able to overlook the snub on Sammy Hagar (who I very much prefer over Roth).
I was immediately drawn to Miri, a fearless young girl with a new-hopedangerous sense of curiosity. As an ardent fan of The X-Files, I couldn’t help imagining that this is what Dana Scully must have been like as a teenager. Miri provided Hobbs an intriguing main character and he developed her well; she is equally confident and vulnerable. Hobbs adeptly captures the burgeoning investigative skills of the tenacious girl and provides just enough poignant moments to remind everyone she is still daddy’s little girl.
Although Miri is the star, the rest of the cast, including the adults, were equally compelling. Chris provided boyish charm with a dash of humor and sarcasm. Chris also provided some reflections on writing that I particularly enjoyed “Chris wondered if one of his books would one day be lost in the rubble of some seedy little shop like this. That would be enough he thought, if he wrote just one book that hardly anybody read and it finally got lost in a barn full of similar books written by other people that nobody ever heard of.”
Here are just a few of my favorite moments/lines
“Her mind turned to thoughts of friends, and to boys that she knew or would like to know.”
“We better go find our friends before mine starts a fistfight or yours burns down the church.”
“They generally don’t enter houses uninvited for the same reason that most people don’t they don’t want to get shot.”
“None of us are exactly what everybody else thinks we are.”
“Maybe he’s an alien,” Bobby said.
“Let’s deal with real world problems like vampires and werewolves, Bobby.”
If you are looking for an inspirational coming-of-age story with a strong female lead (and a little supernatural adventure), look no further. New Hope is highly recommended. With so many rich characters and story possibilities, I can only assume that Hobbs is penning a sequel.
