Ryan Adler and his twin sister, Jane, spent their happiest childhood days at their parents' mountain Colorado cabin--until divorce tore their family apart. Now, with the house about to be sold, the Adler twins gather with their closest friends for one last snowboarding-filled holiday. While commitment-phobic Ryan gazes longingly at Lauren, wondering if his playboy days are over, Jane's hopes of reconciling with her old boyfriend evaporate when he brings along his new fianc�e. As drama builds among the friends, something lurks in the forest, watching the cabin, growing ever bolder as the snow falls...and hunger rises. After a blizzard leaves the group stranded, the true test of their love and loyalty begins as the hideous creatures outside close in, one bloody attack at a time. Now Ryan, Jane, and their friends must fight--tooth and nail, bullet and blade--for their lives. Or else surrender to unspeakable deaths in the darkened woods.

This book takes off a bit slow through maybe the first third of it, with quite a bit of character development to the main characters. All the while you get glimpses at the monsters through different side-characters in town running into them, sort of teasing you to what's coming. Then the main characters finally get it, and wow that's when this book took off for me. I was a bit nauseated, heartbroken, horrified and absolutely filled with endorphins at different points throughout. That sounds awful but that's kind of what I want out of a simple creature horror novel. I want a rollercoaster, and The Shuddering really brings it. This novel kicks you down, picks you back up again, then kicks you even harder. Loved it and I will always endorse this book as an extremely fun, easily consumed creature horror.
