Review
I LOVED this book. I read it in two sittings, and that rarely happens for me. The Forgotten Island had everything I want in a horror novel. The setting in Thailand was incredible. The characters were well developed and authentic. I spent the entire book rooting for some characters and others; I looked forward to their struggles. David writes fantastic unlikeable characters. The ending of this book was satisfying and something I didn't expect.
Read this story if you enjoy the following
💪🏻 A strong, foulmouthed, female protagonist who takes shit from no one.
🌴 Tropical vacations that go horribly wrong.
🕷 Monsters that make your skin crawl.
TW: Please note if you don’t usually read gory horror books then this might not be the book for you. It does contain body horror and I also want to give a trigger warning for sexual assault.
