The Troop by Nick Cutter
4.0

"How could you hide from a murderer who lives under your skin?"

I have been on a search for a horror novel that shook me to my core. I have been seeing this book so much I had to give it a read. I wouldn't say this was horror but it definitely made me uneasy. I never thought I would feel sympathy for a spider the way I did. Fair warning this book does have very graphic scenes of animal abuse/torture. BTW f**k Shelly! Deadly diseases have always been my biggest fear and this book just proved to me why. I did get some small Stephen King vibes especially with the banter of the characters in the beginning. Overall I felt it was a good read, fast paced, and full of gore. I was originally going to rate it 3 stars but as I was eating sushi I started thinking about this book, wondering what if I just consumed a worm and made myself sick so it definitely stuck with me!
