"Moody, quirky, and funny, this is the perfect possession story for the social media age."
--Molly Odintz, CrimeReads

"A terrifying glimpse into teen anomie and rootlessness . . . Daring and stylish [with] flashes of black humor . . . the darkness is so relentless and remorseless that the reader can feel pursued by it, punished. Grim, violent Midwestern gothic--hard to watch, hard to turn away from."
--Kirkus

"String Follow is a work of evil genius that put me in a literal trance and didn't relinquish me until the final page. Like the irresistibly wise, dark, and unfathomable force it conjures, the voice got in my head and tainted my soul. I loved every insidious second."
--Mona Awad, author of Bunny

"A horrific descent into the madness that alternately connects and isolates us. Simon Jacobs creates a world where the characters' everyday terrors are taken advantage of by a larger force, a brilliant web of evil that stretches over an entire southern Ohio town. It's a riveting and unstoppable journey."
--Rachel Eve Moulton, author of Tinfoil Butterfly

"String Follow is a deliciously dark modern Gothic that deftly mines the terrors and vicissitudes of the suburban teenager. A small town in Ohio and indeed, the reader, are soon stalked by a mysterious dark force as it hunts for the perfect prey, but it is Simon Jacobs's sly and simmering prose that is the most undeniable force, slipping under your skin to haunt you long after the last page."
--Kira Jane Buxton, author of Hollow Kingdom
