It is rare that a book genuinely scares me, but I read this book in February and I'm STILL having nightmares about it. The writing, the atmosphere, the characters...everything about this book is to die for. The slow burning terror oozes off the page and wraps itself around your heart and mind and squeezes until you scream. For fans of Stephen King, Lord of the Flies, and the Exorcist, this delectable tale is best read with the lights on.
