It's taken me a few years to finally get around to reading this and it definitely did not disappoint. It was all I could have hoped for. Super creepy.

This is a post apocalyptic novel and not one of my favorite genres. The author never really explains what the creatures were. The story was not too scary but rather creepy. I don't think I would want to read it at night before sleeping as the story would definitely play tricks with your mind. The story jumps between past and present and the author does this very well. There is a definite connection to the characters as you do care about what is happening to them. This is the author's debut novel ...more
