A boy scout troop sets up camp on an island off the coast of Prince Edward Island. A planned retreat away from everyday life, the boys and their scout leader envision a quiet weekend where they can gain valuable survival experience while earning merit badges. Unfortunately for everyone involved, t...
Received a copy of The Troop By Nick Cutter through the First Reads Giveaway The cover page of The Troop has a quote from Stephen King saying how the book scared the hell out of him. From my perspective The Shining is one of the scariest books I have ever read. Making the case for The Troop I would ...
If Stephen King says The Troop scared the hell out of him then it better be scary...right? In this case, the boss of the horror book blurb got it right. This is one terrifying novel."The Troop" refers to a boy scout troop. In this case, 5 scouts and a scout leader who are on a camping trip on a unin...
Disgusting. Gross. Revolting. Nauseating. Sickening. Phenomenal writing. Those are the words that come to my mind when I think of this book. I've never read anything by Cutter before, but prior to saying anything else about this book, let me give credit where credit is due. Cutter is an exceptional ...
Worms. Wormsssssss. Yeah. Let's talk about worms. Because there will be worms. And a lot of them. And by a lot, I mean a lot. Not just some. A lot. If you don't like worms, you won't like The Troop. If you don't like biologically refined (I feel that's inappropriate to call them, but you know) worms...
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review! I love delving into the horror genre every now and then, and I have to say the description on The Troop sold me right away. Something about being stranded in an isolated area like the...
Buddy read. See Scarlet's review here and Khanh's review here. ^_^ Despite my high hopes, I was unable to finish this one. The troop of kids was infuriatingly boring and their fate was of little concern to me. They seemingly sat around all the time and had nonsensical conversations about irrelevant ...
Actual rating: 2.5. If there's one thing I've learned from this year's crop of books, it's that you should be aware of what you put in your body.In Japan, they have a specific type of manga and anime called "shounen manga," meaning "young men's manga." The category is specifically targeted towards a...
Vivid, will give you the creeps and never again think the same of a tapeworm.With the last name "Cutter" its only right to write a horror story that crawls up your fingers right from the page. in Dreamcatcher meets Stand by Me (but as Scouts)When a group of scouts and there Scout Master go to an isl...
Made it to 48%, which is crazy, because I feel like I've been reading this for ages :/ The Troop is not a bad book. And I'm sure it gets better in the second half. But I just can't get into it right now and forcing myself to read it when I'm in no mood to appreciate it seems very unfair. So puttin...
