2 slurs is entirely too many. The book needs to be updated. 

It was okay. Not my favorite horror but I loved the wintery/snow elements this time of year

Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

isolated cabin in the snow capped mountains, ravenous creatures desperate for prey, and a group of friends with bumpy histories. not a fan of the characters and their weird internal drama, but enjoyed the setting and the horror.

This was a lot of fun.

Creature horror!

2.75, I really wasn’t impressed with this at all. This is the first book I’ve read by this other as well so I’m sure disappointed (wondering if I should take Seed off of my TBR). I read it for a book club, otherwise I think I would have DNFed. Easily could have been written in 150 pages but it dragged on and on with a very lack luster ending.

Also will we ever get an answer about what those creatures really are?

Overall, SKIP IT
