However, I felt like I only ever knew the characters at a surface level, which made it hard for me to care about what happened to them. It also made it easier to hate them as events spiraled out of control. Ramona was an incredibly interesting character and her mental deterioration made total sense, but I just couldn’t help but wish her the WORST from the start. In the end, the only person with sane logic was David.
Don’t be misled into thinking this is a creature feature or centered around the monstrous children. This horror novel focuses on the terrifying nature of humanity and how people react when their own is at stake. Definitely worth a read if you’re into horror, but it’ll be low on your list of favorite.

There is a scene where a character is essentially forced into performing oral sex, although it’s more complicated than that.nyallis0n's review against another edition
