5.0

The most horrifying stress inducing, heart breaking novel I’ve read all year. No, screw that. Many years. Maybe ever. I was not prepared for this. The future of horror is in great hands with Max Booth III. This novel should rocket him to the upper echelon of horror fiction. This book shattered my heart, frayed my nerves, and probably caused me to have hypertension, because as I write this a full 30 minutes after finishing it, my heart is still pounding, my eyes are still tearing, and I just feel exhausted, but exhilarated at the same time, reflecting on this relentless roller coaster of a nightmare, a story that’s going to haunt me for some time. In my top 3 for the year! My highest recommendation!

Clever inventive and just when you thought you knew how it would pan out it gave you something different. The ending though is shocking, a massive disappointment.
