Woom is one of those books I couldn't put down. Through each story being told via flashback, more pieces to the puzzle become clear, and the plot was well thought out, addictive, and wonderfully written. The graphic descriptions in each scene were stomach churning in just the ways one would expect for a horror story, and it made the journey immersive and emotional. Despite the weirdness that continues to unfold, I couldn't help but develop empathy for each of the two main characters. A wild ride leading to a gut wrenching ending and overall, a very interesting read.
