Thank you very much BookSirens, for this ARC - whew. I read a lot of thrillers and watch a lot of horrors, but I've never read a book quite like this. This was proper horror film horror, graphic and violent and unending. I really liked the way it was written; I really liked how unlikeable the characters were and yet how compelling the plot was. I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoys slasher-style horror - it's very much not subtle.

Thank you, BookSiren, for the ARC, and thank you to the writer and publishers for all your hard work. This review is voluntary and happily left!

I absolutely loved this book. I couldn't put it down and finished it in one day. Just the thought of an authors creation coming to life, one from a horror book is startling to think about, but even more so if your in danger of being killed for not liking that authors work or say negative things is terrible!

This book certainly makes you think more about words written on the page. The power words hold. If you believe in something hard enough, it can gain such power and perhaps even come true. Danger, death, despair, and just overall anger! This book was phenomenal.

This book was definitely worth the read. There's not so much sex in this book as it's faded to black. If that's what you hope to find, this isn't the one for you. Gore is certainly a big one in this book.
