After it'd been sitting on my shelf for over a year, I finally decided to dig it out and read on the rare occasion that I had a day off from work. This was one of the few books that I'd been wanting to read in particular, so I was understandably excited when I flipped to the first page. I thought for sure I was going to end up sharing myself stupid so I dimmed the lights and snuggled under my blanket. 
 I read this book in under just two hours. 
 Told through Callie's perspective, the book centers around a group of friends on a hiking trip in the woods of upstate New York and the events that take place during their four-day trip. 
 It was a decent read, similar to Asher Ellis's 'The Remedy'. Not as gruesome and grisly, but the set stage was about the same. The story didn't frighten me like I thought it would, but it was definitely the perfect book to start my morning. Especially with the weather outside being as crappy as it is. 
 I'm not willing to give too much away but I will say that despite the lack of jumping nearly out of my skin or the hair rising on the back of my neck, I really enjoyed the book. 
 The nervous vibe through the book was more keenly felt thanks to Callie's frantic thoughts and reactions to everything around her. That twist at the end though - when we find out the truth behind all the things they were going through? 
 Did NOT see that coming. 
 The only question that I have over this book is that - if these kids were only fifteen years old, why the hell would their parents let them disappear into the heavy, thick woods for a few days by themselves without someone at least eighteen with them? That might be the protective parent part of me, but I probably wouldn't be comfortable at the idea of my kid camping out in the woods. Even with a group of friends. At fifteen and sixteen to boot. 
 But I could be wrong. 
 Other than that, this book was good. I kind of wish that there'd been more of a scare factor to it, since I love me some horror stories, but no complaints here.
