i liked this a lot -- it's really tightly paced, genuinely frightening, and full of the author's obvious expertise with this kind of intense hiking holiday. i also learned things about swedish culture?? that's a really interesting bonus with books like this. very fun and i recommend it

I've done my best remembering these -- some may be minor, not moderate; and some may seem more severe to you. Take care.

Towards the end of the book the story becomes increasingly more crazy. Please dont read this if you cant handle people going completely mad and doing horrifying things

Would have liked this more if it had an actual ending.  Also "Silence." Ugh.
