This was the horror book I’d been looking for that was delivering all the creepy and horrific details of my dreams. If you’re looking to be scared and freaked out at the same time, pick this one!

It’s a gore-fest with body horror, which I’m fine with, and the story concept wasn’t bad. I don’t think it was quite developed enough - there are a lot of places this concept could have gone that I think could have been more interesting. There is a major plot point that I think wasn’t explained well. It’s an acceptable read if you’re into body horror and gore, but I definitely don’t consider this book to be scary.
