Reviews with content warning for Blood - Intercepts

This must be one of the best and most unnerving horror books I've ever read.
It is genuinely scary and made my heart race at times!
This will be a book I will recommend anyone who likes horror!

I was sure it was going to end with all the Antennas "free" and dead. I was also sure Riley was going to kill herself. I really enjoyed the turn this book took. Every character in this story is so morally grey (except Riley). Everyone had their reasons for their actions and that made the plot incredibly gripping. The opening of the Antenna's POV was amazing! So scary and unsettling!
And I never would have guessed that she had been a supervisor as well. I do wonder if all the new Antenna's (the 7 dwarfes) are the survivors. Is Tyler there? Hannah?
I loved how I ended up second-guessing every situation that was portrayed, once I knew how vivid the hallucinations could get.
The whole concept of Antennas isn't even that far fetched. The book itself mentions MK Ultra without naming it.

I will definitely think about this book and this story for the next couple days. It was incredible!

Oh hell, this was a ride from start to finish. Sci-fi, horror, emotional damage. I couldn't put it down and blazed through in one day.

Unreliable narrator at it's finest. You can't trust any of your senses in this and after every twist is a new twist!

And somehow, this book managed a few jump scares. How is that even possible?

I loved this book so much. Had me gripped from the very beginning to the very end, had some super creepy parts in it too. I don’t usually read books so quickly but I couldn’t put this one down.
