I have always had a penchant for ancient horror. A story about a forest that traps you and seemingly out to consume you? I'm reeled in! Most of the elements of this book are to my liking. Body horror, supernatural horror, ancient monsters, survivalist horror, and messy fights. Unfortunately, I did not like the þook as a whole. First, because it's too long. It's 11 hours in audiobook! Second, the main characters are teenagers with raging hormones which can be exasperating to read about. They're unlikeable lacking any redeeming qualities. Third, the drama and sudden backstories dampened the suspense. And well, the "final girl" has been the most uninteresting final girl I have ever encountered. However, the audiobook narrator, David Bendena was amazing and made the experience quite enjoyable.
