Review: Not very impressive

I was looking for something different to read. Back in the days when I was (quite a lot) younger and book reading meant using paper as a medium without exception I used to like to read horror stories and this one got some nice ratings so I had a go at it. I have to say that I am not overly impressed. First of all the book is more of a short story than an actual book. Amazon claims it to be around 200 pages. My Calibre plugin says it has 102 pages. I think my Calibre plugin is the more honest one. In any case it was quick read.The story is pretty much a standard one. Group of people alone in the woods, storm, cabin and a monster. Been there, seen that, done that and read that. I found the description of the book interesting, especially the first part but I feel it was not very representative for the majority of the book. [Spoiler ahead] I really hate it when the book blurb actually depicts the end of the book. [End Spoiler]Well it was a bit of a diversion from the Sci-Fi/Fantasy reads but not very impressive unfortunately.
