I made it into Chapter 3 and just could not get into it. I used to love horror, but if this is the new horror of the times, then it’s not for me. From the rest of the reviews, might be worth a read, but I just couldn’t get into it. I actually laughed out..

On several Facebook pages people raved about this book. I forced myself to finish it. Not worth the $13.00 I spent.

The story was not believable and many disgusting parts in the book. I would not recommend this book.
