Review: I Thought I Saw the Movie...I Was Wrong
Rating: 5 out of 5

Consumed is a little bit of all the gruesome horror movies I've ever seen with a plot or two that came unexpected.  Background: we have young people off on a weekend vacation, getting lost, and running out of gas.  Some of them get along and some of them don't, a simple matter of texting and breakup.  For those who are fans of the cinematic horror slashers, you will recognize the personality types of the wild and wanton young set.  Bring in the "family" who are so helpful and homesy.  Place the travelers in danger.  The horror movie is off and rolling.  And just when I got some things all figured out, Matt Shaw throws in a plot twist I never saw coming.  Like another review of the book said, I will give no spoilers.I would be amiss not repeating the warning on the front of the book: This book may not be for the easily shocked.  Some scenes may be distressing.  Remember, the title of the book is Consumed.  For those of you who haven't run across this subject matter before, take the warning into account.  The innocents who read this, the book might blow your widdle mind.  For veterans of the genre like myself, it just adds to the taste and flavor of the meat.  Bon appetit!
