>>	Anonymous Wed Jan 11 02:40:40 2023 No.21508746 The Ruins by Scott Smith Where the horror comes not just from the plants but the fucked up situational ethics of it. There's no actual chapter breaks but small blank sections, which makes it feel endless and trapping but in a good, tightly plotted way
