I love Horror. This is not my first
Hunter Shea Horror that I have read. Regardless of how different storylines
are, his books are dark and for as an avid Horror reader well worth the time
spent reading it.
First of all, a warning of sorts; this
horror is not just dark but it has elements that can be difficult for some people
to read (there is possible cannibalism, etc). I will leave it at that.
‘Misfits’ is about a group of friends
from lower-income families and bad families or bad environments at home, who
have come together when their friend gets raped. This group of friends decides
to get revenge/retribution for it.
I was pleasantly surprised by the plot.
There are deaths, blood. Families destroyed. The plot was very well built, kept me
guessing until the end. The suspense and Mystery were slowly revealed. That
being said I had to take breaks in between because of how dark it was. But
still, I do not regret continuing to read it.
I absolutely loved that this actually
had some kind of HEA. Yes, there were a lot of deaths but there was a somewhat
happy ending. It is a ‘Somewhat happy ending’ because the survivors went through
hell and lost most of the friends and family to get to safety.
Climax, WOW! That is all I am going to
say. I was riveted to those last couple of chapters.
I wanted a Horror. I got one. I will
recommend this to hardcore horror fans who can take the blood and gore.
