What the Woods Took by Courtney Gould

3.0

3.5* finally got around to reading this book and I enjoyed it! This is a very slow burn horror, when I first started reading I had to go back to the summary, because I thought this was just around a wilderness therapy camp. The beginning could’ve been cut in half, the real “horror” aspects don’t start until about 40/50% which made the first half drag. The second half and the things they discover in the woods were TERRIFYING! I wish we could have explored the mimics more and learned more about them!

It’s not giving yellowjackets in the way it thinks it is lmao
