I don't often read horror books, but I picked this one up at a local book event, and I must say I'm very impressed. I loved all the characters, and you hope they all make it, but come on, this is a horror book, and that's unrealistic. It was a pretty quick read, and I don't think I'll go to sleep with nightmares?

Content Warning: There 6 descriptive scenes with dismemberment of male genitalia, death of crazed insane children, and unfortunately animals.
