I was honestly surprised how good this book was. Although I have yet to see the movie, I was expecting this to be super cheesy slasher horror. Plenty of blood and gore here but the characters were interesting too and I really liked it overall.
I bought this book well before the movie came out. It was mainly gore and suspense with a very interesting main scary killer. The relationships in the end caught me off gaurd. The book also gives a much more indepth look to Jacob's beginings then the movie does.
