This is without a doubt one of the worst books I have ever read. To the point where I am positive that anything over 1 star was left by a family, friend, or someone the author paid. There is no proper grammar to be seen for miles. Missing punctuation left and right, half the sentences too choppy, the other half too long, and all of them absolutely boring.
How this is listed as horror is beyond me. Nothing remotely scary happens in this book. Do you know what you need for a book to be scary? You don't need gore or monsters or serial killers. You need to give a shit about the characters. ANYTHING can be scary when you care about who it's happening to and if they'll be alright. Stephen King's "The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon" is a perfect example. Almost nothing scarier than mosquitoes ever occurs and it's still chilling. I finished this book ten minutes ago and I already couldn't tell you a single memorable thing about any of the characters. They were so thinly written they were transparent.
The action sequences made no sense whatsoever. The main character bounced from place to place and motion to motion with seemingly no connection at all. The dialogue he provided was never anything but stilted and awkward, spoken in a way absolutely no human actually speaks.
The entire book is just god awful. There is not a single redeeming factor here at all. Not even the short page count can make up for how utterly horrendous the writing is.
