Cannot recommend enough that you listen to the audiobook instead of read this chilling, brilliant piece of horror. I don't think I could have handled the main character otherwise. The audiobook made her transition from unbearable to final girl standing soooo much more emotional and engaging. I couldn't sleep, I was looking into dark corners but I could NOT finish it fast enough. 

If you're looking for an engaging, character driven, maddening, furious, vivid and at times horrific depiction of the human condition under impossible odds, I beg you to give this a listen!
