4.0

Yes to this snowy, isolated, mountain cabin, unfathomable monster(s), woman finds her desire for independence despite extreme abuse, spooky spooky story. If Last Thing to Burn haunted you, this will too due to similar themes, but add in a snow monster. At first this books toes the line of thriller and horror, and then firmly steps over it into horror territory. I’d recommend this one, but the abuse suffered by the main character is fucked.
