This is a fun read, It does not create as much scare as it is into violence, body gore and survival. It was predictable in places, and took too many elements from many other popular horror books. But characters were different, likeable or not, that will be subjective, but they were interesting and they were put into some very extreme situations.

It felt like author had a really fun time writing this and that made it soo enjoyable. Anyone whose comfort genre is horror, this will be a very entertaining read. 

There is one small suggestion to publisher and readers, there is a small playlist at the end of the book, if that would be in the beginning, reader would have read this along with those songs. It would be a cool addition to whole experience of reading.
