Our Winter Monster
Chilling holiday horror about an unhappy couple running from their problems and straight into the maw of a terrifying beast, perfect for fans of Paul Tremblay and Sara Gran
For the last year, Holly and Brian have been out of sync. Neither can forget what happened that one winter evening; neither can forgive what’s happened since. Tonight, Holly and Brian race toward Pinebuck, New York, trying to outrun a blizzard on their way to the ski village getaway they hope will save their relationship. But soon they lose control of the car—and then of themselves.
Now Sheriff Kendra Book is getting calls about a couple in trouble—along with reports of a brutal and mysterious creature rampaging through town, leaving a trail of crushed cars, wrecked buildings, and mangled bodies in the snow.
To Kendra, who lost another couple to the snow just seven weeks ago, the danger feels personal. But not as personal as it feels to Holly and Brian, who are starting to see the past, the present, and themselves in a monstrous new light . . .
Mahoney’s exhilarating story moves like an avalanche, but its desperate characters, claustrophobic setting, and shocking displays of gore will stay with you long after the snow has melted. Our Winter Monster captures the horrifying moments that test if we’re strong enough to weather the worst—and asks who we might survive the storm with.

Our Winter Monster is not the creature feature I expected, but more of a look at relationships, trauma, and finding the will to keep moving. Holly and Brian are trying to save their relationship with a last minute trip to a winter village after a traumatic event that left them both lost.
Unfortunately for them, they’re quickly separated by an unknown entity with ab unknown motives and a penchant for destruction.
I was confused for a majority of this book and even now after finishing it I still have questions but the journey was fun. Our Winter Monster has characters with real struggles and I wanted to see how they’d make it out. This is definitely a weird one and there were times I was Ted answers but overall I did enjoy
