“I began reading this book without knowing its plot. I simply followed the title and went with it. It’s an entertaining science fiction story about an extraterrestrial creature with the extraordinary ability to transform into any living being. This unique trait blurs the line between humans and monsters, making it challenging to discern who is human and who is not. The book was so good.”Elysia Danielle

“Once I picked this up, it was hard to put back down. I watched the movie first, and while I think the movie improved on the book, the book is still very good. There's nothing scarier than looking your friend in the eyes, not knowing if you can trust him, not knowing if he really IS him. I would have loved to know how the author came up with this story, what thoughts are inside his head.”

“I love how John Carpenter’s adaptation of this is super faithful because this really is a great story and perfect for the winter season.
I will say, some of the terms did confuse me since it mentions research equipment that I’ve never heard of and the dialogue is hard to follow at times because there are so many different characters and all get very little description so I was often confused on who was talking and who they were but overall a fun story to add to your winter TBR!”Start a Book Club
