2.0

This book has some interesting elements to it: an abandoned spaceship, mystery surrounding a mass murder event, and an unknown parasite, which is really right up my alley. However, the book leans more towards being a thriller rather than a horror. There is potential for horror moments, but they kinda fall flat for me. It's interesting at first, but as you read and reach 40% of the book, the story feels meh, and I started to lose attention. I ended up reading it just for the sake of finishing the book.
