Have a great and scary time!

I've been meaning to read this for ages!

I just started reading this (page 37) and man, things went south fast!

Finished this one today - I gave it a 2/5 but I’m interested in hearing other people’s thoughts on it!

Just finished this. It's the very definition of average. Average to poor writing and a derivative plot that plays out very much like a b-movie. There's nothing new to be found here but it's short, zips along at a good pace and provides ok entertainment. 2.5/5.

Oh Patrick, I could not agree more with this description of the book. The characters were so one dimensional, that when I went to write my review I could not remember what the name of the female lead was. Now I did finish it 9 days before I wrote the review and I admit that my memory is not what it once was, but come on man!

I gave it two stars because it was short and had a decent amount of blood. The plot moved quickly, mostly because there was almost no character development. I think I picked the wrong book to read for this months group read. I'm going to start Camp Damascus and hope to finish it before the end of the month.

I finished this last week and agree on it being average though I did enjoy it for the most part. Not a fan of a killer POV as it limits the tension for me as well, was tempted to read the sequels but decided against it
