Scary book, was not expecting this. I expected the Blake Crouch who wrote Dark Matter, not Dean Koontz…this is about a psychopath serial killer and definitely not my cup of tea. It was a page turner, but I almost DNF‘d it 3 times…ughhh, never again. For me this was a book I should‘ve never read. For someone who likes serial killer psycho paths, this will be right up your alley. His first book.

JanuarieTimewalker13 Please note it‘s part of a series. I won‘t be continuing. Way too dark for me. 8mo
JanuarieTimewalker13 A novel of terror should‘ve clued me in…but I was like, nahhh…this is a SciFi guy. My bad. (edited) 8mo
JanuarieTimewalker13 Book 20 finished on 8/5/23 (edited) 8mo

What. A. Ride. I couldn't possibly express all of my thoughts in this small box, so I've written an entire blog post about this debut novel from one of our most popular authors. There are major spoilers in my blog post but they are clearly marked! If you've read this one, please take a look and let me know your own thoughts!

Marmie7 Blake Crouch is one of my favorite authors now. His writing is fantastic🙌 5y
wellreadredhead @Marmie7 I LOVE Crouch! Dark Matter is my favorite so far, but all of his books I‘ve read have been five star for me! 5y
Marmie7 Dark Matter was awesome! I'm watching the tv series Wayward Pines, it's really good. Now I need to read the book series! 5y

When I first read this book, it terrified me and I gave it ⭐⭐⭐. Having finished it for a second time, it's definitely a ⭐⭐⭐⭐. Considering this is his first novel, you can see the skill and twisted-ness that is Blake Crouch. I can't wait to read the rest of the series now!

That part that stayed with me since I read this book in high school? It's about to happen. I want to close my eyes... 😳

I've read this book before, when I was in high school, and some of the terrifying images have stayed with me since. I tried to read it years ago, a second time and it scared me too much. But I love Blake Crouch and I've missed this book and want to read the whole series, so I'm starting again. Here. We. Go. #currentlyreading
