Due to personal preference, the book didn’t scare me. It’s certainly gross, awfully descriptive, and tense, but I fear the Big Bad is introduced too soon which dampened any sense of terror I may have felt. Otherwise a book I would recommend any fans of horror in general should read!

I dropped (not DNF'd; I'll pick it back up eventually) Cows for this one. And boy oh boy, am I glad that I did.
I grew to love
The ending was somewhat confusing, though?
Anyway, it was a fabulous read! Sort of a slow start once it focuses on the boys, but it was very worth it.
