Memorials
"1983: Three students from a small college embark on a week-long road trip to film a documentary on roadside memorials for their American Studies class. The project starts out as a fun adventure with long stretches of empty road and nightly campfires where they begin to open up with one another. But as they venture deeper into the Appalachian backwoods, the atmosphere begins to darken. They notice more and more of the memorials feature a strange, unsettling symbol hinting at a sinister secret. Paranoia sets in when it appears they are being followed. Their vehicle is tampered with overnight and some of the locals appear to be anything but welcoming. Before long, the students can't help but wonder if these roadside deaths were really random accidents...or is something terrifying at work here?"--

Ratings and reviews
When 3 college friends travel through Appalachia Pennsylvania to do a school project on Roadside Memorials. What they discover on a few Memorials leads to a sinister mystery that not everyone would want to solve. My Opinion- ( trying without spoilers ) I was disappointed in how slow this book was.. it didn’t keep my attention because it was too descriptive and slow through out the book. It took me more than a week to finish it. I liked the idea of going and searching for stories about the people the Memorials were made for.. and the sinister meaning behind mysterious carvings/markers placed on certain memorials. Most of the time it was traveling, eating and using the bathroom in almost each chapter.. The Story was great.. The characters and their backstories are very developed.. But we didn’t need to know they ate or were hungry, or needed to go to the bathroom in nearly every chapter. I was underwhelmed and somewhat bored.
