Summary
A supernatural super thriller from the author of Let the Right One In.
Molly wakes her mother to go to the toilet. The campsite is strangely blank. The toilet block has gone. Everything else has gone, too. This is a place with no sun. No god. Just four families remain. Each has done something to bring them here - each denies they deserve it. Until they see what's coming over the horizon, moving irrevocably towards them. Their worst mistake. Their darkest fear. And, for just one of them, their homecoming.
This gripping conceptual horror takes you deep into one of the most macabre and unique imaginations writing in the genre. On family, on children, Lindqvist writes in a way that tears the heart and twists the soul. I Am Behind You turns the world upside down and, disturbing, terrifying and shattering by turns, it will suck you in.

Weird but rather good
Certainly worth a listen. Fastest book I got through. Very odd and addictive... do it...

When you spend hours listening to a book for it to end like that? So frustrating!
-nothing is explained fully
- the characters are unrelateable
- the sex scenes are written in a way that makes my skin crawl
- there's around 2 full hours that really are hard work to get through
Just generally really disappointed and unfulfilled.

Avoid, a waste of time.
Apart from the naked misogyny (women are all spiteful supermodels that the men hate but also find arousing at the same time, cuz that's healthy, or they are dim door mats with entirely void personalities, or they are psychotic little girls because of course little girls have no souls, right?) and apart from the casual reference to rape fantasies, having women actually blood fight each other, for no reason apart that they are jealous of each other (as women must always be!) there is zero plot in this drivel. If you are looking for horror you will find none here. There is not a hint of thrill as no one is doing anything to solve the main 'problem'. Just sad, pitiful back stories to the point where as a reader you lose the will to even learn the answer to the problem and you bin the book and the author for ever. I'm so grateful our generation has real horror books to enjoy, back in the day where this was all there was it must have been miserable.

Exceptionally disappointing
I have no idea what this book was about even when I fast forwarded to the end was I any the wiser, in fact it was so dire I returned. I loved the other two books by this author and I'm glad I never read this one first as I wouldn't have tried the other two

Definitely not his best
Not really sure what this book was about. No real plot, nothing really happens and no real ending. Only managed to get halfway through and then skipped to the end to see if anything happened. It didnt.

If it had a point, it got lost somewhere
Started off quickly with a very intriguing idea but as the book went on I found myself getting frustrated with how little the people were really considering their situation and at how little the plot seemed to develop into… well, anything other than lots of random interactions and extended flashbacks.
I persisted to the end and was utterly disappointed. No actual end with no explanation of any of it. The cryptic last line suggests that there may have been some grand metaphor for the whole thing, but if that was the case it was completely lost on me.
