I was a beta reader for this book, and thanks to the author, I am now a proud owner of a finished copy too! It's so cool to see a book grow from a Word document to an actual book I can hold in my hands.

This book is a folklore-inspired horror with six somewhat likeable main characters - shout out to Ava for being the most rational in the mix - who enter a creepy forest for fun. Couldn't be me! Rhys is so suspicious, and I never knew how to feel about him at any point, but he certainly didn't leave me enamoured. The Whisperers are great fun, bringing tension, manipulation, and discord to the group. This is a fairly fast-paced book with a satisfying ending - to quote the blurb, "Not all stories end happily, and not all friendships survive the dark."
