#CLTBRCHALLENGE15 Book Review: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving 3/5 Stars

Posted byCourtney M. WendletonPosted inBook ReviewTags:, , , , ,

Overview: Traveling school teacher fancies a rich debutante, so does the local town hero. The town is rumored to be haunted not by just one ghost but many, foremost being the Headless Horseman. There is a party where the three are in attendance, when the debutante spurns the teacher, he flees her house and is chased by the “headless horseman” and disappears.

Opinion: Everyone knows the story, courtesy of the many different versions spread through movies and retelling. The original is a bit flowery with the descriptions and unnecessary details for my taste.

Recommend: Not so much.

I'm an author with an associate's in psychology. Interested in a lot of different things, and love controversy. The more controversial the better, but that's not all I'm interested in. Can be a bit confusing at times, but that's normal!
