I thought this was so chilling! It was a quick read but certainly not for everyone. I like how the author uses very intentional symbolism (hint: pay attention to the color yellow). This is the second book by Paul Tremblay I’ve read, and I think I liked A Head Full of Ghosts more. There is some weird POVs in this book, but they were mostly successful and clear although I did get confused at some points. Over all, if you like horror and don’t have any upcoming glamping plans, The Cabin at the End of the World is worth a read!
