The Forest by Lisa Quigley

4.0

Awesome folk horror that uses switching timelines incredibly well. The author really used these time choices to paint a picture of trauma, re-assessing old memories with new information, and the emotional states the MC experiences as a result of this learning.

When the familiar becomes a source of terror, what terrors are we prepared to run to, to expose our vulnerable to, to be safer? And what is it about nature - as in wilderness, human nature, our own animal nature, un-civilization, that makes it powerful? Awesome book.
