A review by drizzlybear
The Troop by Nick Cutter

challenging dark tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No

4.0

it was good, but i didn't enjoy it? horror is always hard to rate and review like that i guess, because a good horror book isn't generally one you enjoy. but this was well-written, good characters, kept me invested even though at times i really wished i wasn't reading it. it wasn't too scary, more horrifying than terrifying, so it revolted me and engrossed me

i'm giving it a good rating, but i had a bad time. i don't think i would recommend this to anyone, i wouldn't reread it, if i could do it all over again i don't know if i would read it, it did not add anything to my life, and in fact i think it made me worse. solid read!
