It was okay? 3.5 out of 5 I think. Got better once I didn't have to read Todd's perspective anymore. Hoo boy, what a "Nice Guy™" yikes. I think I actually would have preferred if this HAD been supernatural? I figured out pretty early on what was happening but the suspense was still pretty good.

Something watched her. It was tall and covered in thick black fur, its head tilted to regard her. Eileen's mind froze, refusing to accept what her eyes were telling her.

Another month, another book from the insane backlog that is my TBR list finally read. Hunted can finally rest easy knowing that it is free from this prison sentence. (Jokes aside, why is there only one copy of this book in the library network that I belong to? This feels super underrated to me!)

You got creepy woods, survivalist vibes, close friends, a missing girl, and emotionally detached cops. A little bit of everything for everyone. The way the author dances around what exactly is hunting these kids down is so well done, and the series of reveals was *everything.* I'm not sure what I expected but those expectations were exceeded.

Nearly 5 stars, but several things about the ending weren't my cup of tea. Read this one at night, thank me later.

I enjoy all of Darcy Coates books, and this one was no different. It was thrilling and I had to keep turning pages to find out what happened next. I felt like I was as hopeless as the characters while reading. The ending I didn’t see coming, but not completely original. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
