**TW: animal cruelty**
This was an anxiety attack in a book, and I couldn't be happier. I loved the crazy tense atmosphere, the seriously visceral gore, and the absolute fear for the characters' lives.
It was intense, and I was never bored. I guess for some, the first half of the book might be a little slow, but it is a wild ride, and if you love John Carpenter's The Thing or Stephen King in general, you will adore this novel.
