It's like watching a popular YA dystopian movie...while not a masterpiece, I enjoyed it and want to read the third book. Would not be eager to add to a classroom library though--bit too much gore

A gruesome twist on game shows, social media, and survival.

This was the perfect ending to the story started in #murdertrending. These are not the kinds of books I’m normally drawn to, but I really enjoyed them. They were wild and gory and funny, in a way I would not have expected. The plot is so creative.
Graphic: Blood, Murder, Body horror, Violence, Mental illness, Kidnapping, Grief, Gore, Death, Torture, Injury/Injury detail, Fire/Fire injury, Confinement, and Death of parent
Minor: Cancer, Cannibalism, and Car accident

Listen, it's a YA sequel! You know what that means: you must suspend your disbelief and ask no follow up questions. Well versed in this practice, I was able to enjoy this book as a guilty pleasure; a wonderful escape from my world into another.
