4.5

A round of applause for this incredible body horror book. It’s a creepy mix of Stand by me and The Thing. Camping trip with the boy scouts on a remote island? Check! Horrible science project gone wrong? Check! Lord of the Flies type chaos ensues? Check! If you’re in the mood to be slightly nauseous and saying “aw hell no” all the time, this is a book for you.
