For fans of monster-fic, Bait is perfect. Great characters that serve as much more than monster kibble, a fascinating monster that is unique, and a darn good story.
If it had been any longer a lot of questions would have been answered and would have made a good foray as cosmic horror.
Anyway, Bait gets a thumbs up from me.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Thrilling and Suspenseful Young Adult Novel

I recently had the pleasure of reading Trent Pettry's book Bait and I must say, it exceeded my expectations. I have read Trent's other books and this goes right along with the similar quality of writing and fantastic storytelling.
This book is a thrilling and suspenseful read that kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish.
Pettry's writing is engaging and his characters are well-developed, making it easy to become invested in their story. The setting of the marshlands in Florida is also beautifully depicted, adding an atmospheric and unique touch to the novel.
I found myself completely immersed in the story, following Val, Shane, and Freddy on their exciting and dangerous adventure. The inclusion of the mysterious creature added a layer of horror that only added to the thrill of the story.

I like short reads and this one was no exception. I liked the trio of Val, Shane and Freddy. They find a cute, but aggressive, little creature that they think is an octopus. What else will they find?
Read to find out :)

I really enjoyed this story. So much so, that I was sad to have it end and hope for a follow-up.

A very interesting story that has the possibility of becoming a series.

I think this could have had a little bit more to it but I very much enjoyed this short tale! Quick and had a nostalgic vibe to it even though I don't know that was the intention behind this book. Never the less its was a fun time!
