The Deep

This was a difficult read for me. It’s horror, through and through. Perhaps the most horrifying novel I’ve ever read (and I’m a seasoned horror reader). Theres a chapter about a quarter through the book that, as a parent, filled me with such anxiety that I came close to skipping to the next chapter. If I could give it a 9.0, I would. It’s not perfect and the ending is less than spectacular but the ride throughout is well worth the time spent. I heartily recommend for those who can brave it

For me this was an okay book. Not as good as The Troop, but not horrible. Things did get a little muddled at the end. You can definitely feel the Stephen King influence with this author. The narration was great.

What was going on?

what a ride. never read anything like it. *trigger warning* because I would have liked to know that there is a scene involving a dog if that's your limit.

Solid psychological horror

Scary—a great thriller, if very dark. Kept me listening!

This book will redefine what you used to consider the darkest depths of your nightmares.

Really good. A bit slow at first but ends with scary detail, blood and guts. It was chilling.

The premise (the "Gets" disease) is never fleshed-out and feels like a flimsy excuse to basically spend the whole book under water, but terrifying descriptives at the end. Many nightmares from the visuals! Narration was amazing.
