pickReally terrifying. In a way that combines the most unknown-what is the darkest part of the sea, how far will we go to find what is needed most (for the motivations of characters and consequences beyond what they control). A full circle plot that made my heart pound and drop as the story continued. Another Cutter Classic!
pick4 stars. I was hooked and I enjoyed the nightmarish images it gave. Plot made me feel so much for a character and my heart still breaks for Luke. I even shed a few tears. Good book. Now if only my therapy cat didn‘t get emotionally scarred by my emotional roller coaster with this book. Guess it‘s time to get him a therapy cat.
pan🎃umm this book was a hot, boring mess. Waste of time! Never really explains anything and throws a bad dog death in there to break your heart for no damn reason. Author needs to do research cause millipedes don‘t bite. Not sure I‘ll read him again. Wasted opportunity.
Got lots of books to read. Its like all my holds decided oh lets come in at the same time. I have one more but im not reading it because i didnt like it. Im reading one thats not in the picture. The happy camper. Its pretty good.
pickI enjoyed this read, an underwater, sci-fi, horror. I can't say I was scared, but I definitely felt claustrophobic at times. Had a haunting/ psychological horror element, lots of gore, and situations involving animals...
pickBook 168🎧 4⭐️
Having read The Troop, this one didn‘t make me as squeamish but still super freaky!
No one does Nick Cutter justice like Corey Brill - excellent narration 👌🏻
When the world contracts an incurable disease that makes you forget everything, even how to breathe, they think the cure is at the bottom of the ocean.. 8 miles deep.
Ok. This book has gotten out of hand in a great way, I read it all day at work and it‘s so funky. Something about the way that the mc thinks about his wife and what he does for his son just hurts my heart fr, justice for him.
picture above is me at work reading about luke‘s feelings realizing zach was gone
pickI fell asleep when I was reading this book, ended up having the worst nightmare. Good book!
I was able to get a little bit of reading in for the #BirthdayBash. I finished up My Heart is a Chainsaw, then started this one. I'm about 2 hrs in.

bailedI'm sure this novel is good but I can't read books with animal abuse. Even cute little mice, sorry Nick Cutter. The bug part was gross, but well written. So I plan on reading his other books. #BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks
so-soCreepy and disturbing though I did enjoy The Troop better. There was some, what I felt, emotional terrorism. The dog dies and it is dragged out for too long. That‘s what brought the rating down for me. It felt manipulative and I instantly didn‘t care if anyone else lived or died.
pickAlthough I liked his book The Troop more, this was still a great read. Nick Cutter writes horror that leaves me uncomfortable and grossed out, but his books are so good that I can't stop reading.
This marks off another square for #BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

October 2020 TBR...I'm absolutely not going to have time to read 22 books this month, but I'll read at least some of these, and that'll do. Most are some level of creepydarkspooky in honor of the season. ?
I'm most excited for Night Circus, A Darker Shade of Magic, The Secret History, and all three involving Gaiman. Also The Deep, which will be my fourth oceanic horror or fantasy book this year with "Deep" in the title. #theyearofdeep ?
panThe only thing scary about this book is how boring it was...
Since yesterday didn't allow for too much posting, I will annoy you with it all today! Need my #teamslaughter points!
#chillingphotochallenge #scarathlon day 19 No book has ever made me gag before. But that one particularly #gory scene... 🤮 This book became an instant favorite in that moment.
I mean, Clive Barker says it was utterly terrifying, so you know it's gonna be crazy! @Clwojick
pick🎧 I feel I should have read this one. The flashbacks made the audio feel disjointed or maybe I‘m having difficulty focusing? The book is great. It reminds me of the way King can scare you by taking you back to your childhood! It‘s a cross between The Abyss, The Shining and The Thing. Gross, scary, creepy. I wish they had talked more about The medical reason LUKE went down to the bottom of the trench. All in all a good horror book! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Uh...you just lost me, Mr. Cutter. ?
Extinction Kit? Really? I've been in the vet field for 22 years, and I've never once heard of Euthasol being packaged this way. And, perhaps a little research on dosing of Euthasol would have been a good thing. While 2.5cc is certainly more than enough for a Guinea Pig, it's definitely not enough to "flatline a Great Dane." #factcheck
Inaccurate information like this just completely rips me out of a story.
What?!! This was unexpected. You never know what you might get when buying used books... #thriftbooks
A coworker once told me that she had to pull over while listening to this while driving just to collect herself. She said it was the scariest book she'd ever read. I immediately ordered it from #thriftbooks, but it has been sitting on my bookshelf for several months. I think today is a good day to finally get started. #horror #creepy #scarybook 😱
pickWell. That was deeply unsettling. Get it.😉Not for the faint hearted, the claustrophobic or the weak of stomach, especially if detailed descriptions of maggots, mutations & multiple eyeballs opening up on faces disturb you! Luke is sent down to a deep water lab in the Mariana Trench after all contact with it goes dark. What‘s waiting is far worse than the disease his brother was trying to cure. #SummersEndReadathon #HSreadathon #MountTBR2019
This is already pretty disturbing at 100 pages in. I‘m just at the point where Luke & Al reach the Trieste. I‘m cruising along in the #SummersEndReadathon & #HSreadathon I‘m almost at 60hrs!🙌 How‘s everyone else traveling? Which book are you reading now?
With a last minute vote pulling it over the finish line, my 8th book of the #SummersEndReadathon & the 26th book of the #HSreadathon is a novel described as terrifying, chilling & “scary as f**k”. And I‘m sitting alone, in my library at 3.30am in the morning.😳 Thanks guys.
Reading this during daylight hours. If it hits one more of my creep out buttons, it may end up in the freezer next to Oliver Twist.

I picked this up intending to read a few pages. 65 pages later Cecil had to remind me it‘s dinner time. (That‘s his annoyed expression.) #lmpbc
“It was not as big as its brothers and sisters, and it looked very different indeed. It‘s head was that of a bee, though it‘s eyes were a bright and fiery red. It‘s abdomen was flesh tones - it looked like a severed fingertip - banded with angry red slashes. It‘s stinger was a cruel spike, dripping venom that sizzled on my skin.”

pickThis book scratched the spot for isolation horror that‘s been itching! The descriptions were rich, but not overwhelming. The characters were deep and Luke was so easy to identify with. It‘s been likened to Event Horizon meets The Abyss and I couldn‘t say it better myself!
pickI liked this book WAY more than I anticipated and powered my way through. Compelling, gory, and such amazing suspense. This #lmpbc pick was perfect for #GroupHorror! I know this is super early but I‘ll probably send it along next week so I make sure to not forget. One of the few five star horror reads I‘ve had in a long time. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I‘m too excited not to start my pick for #lmpbc #GroupHorror! I can‘t wait to hear everyone‘s finalized picks!!

pickA dark and disturbing look at what lies in the deep. This book started out a bit slow and derivative. I kept being pulled out of the story...”oh, that reminds me of”...now, back to the story. But the book eventually came into its own and made it a pick. I will never be able to look at guinea pigs the same way ever again (See my post for #QuotsyDec18 | 7: #Magnetic ). And the bees, oh, the bees.

pickNick Cutter does not disappoint. I‘m not sure if I liked this or The Troop better but both were so good. Creepy, atmospheric, claustrophobic setting makes for quite the page turner.
4.5/5
Up next. I really like The Troop by Cutter, hope this one is as good.
@bookish_wookish You did an awesome job! I love, love the booksleeve💞 The book choices were on spot and the extras are fun! Thank you!! And thank you to @teebe. for hosting! #N4C #Nightmare4Christmas
