About:
Main characters Felix and Faye are going on a nice get away at their parents cabin in Pale Peak because they’re recently engaged. But somethings not right in the mountains of Pale Peak… Ominous sounds in the woods, animals, cries of children and voices. What they face is shocking.
Thoughts:
I loved this book. It essentially dove into the story right away and I found there was no clutter to it. Everything said has a purpose and impact on the story. This book was well written.
Let me just say I’m definitely too spooked to be alone in a cabin now. It was the right amount of scary, the right about of suspense, enough lightness at moments and the right amount of what the fuck.
I felt such sympathy for what they went through, both Felix and Faye… but I treasured the love Felix has for Faye and how he devoted so much of himself to protect her at all costs. My heart sank later in the book finding out what had happened to some of the other character (no spoilers!!)
100% recommend this one!!
