♡ Slasher Movie
♡ Light Time Travel
♡ Questionable Ending
Definitely had the Happy Death Day vibe (though I haven’t watched that yet) when it came to the time travel. Getting to live the role of a character stuck in a slasher movie and seeing how it changed with each decision Alice made.
It was entertaining to hear all the horror movie references and conversations about how things would play out if it were a movie. I’d definitely watch this if it gets an adaptation… but what the hell was that ending?!

1.0
found most of the characters in this book unlikable.
The plot of the story had some great twist to it definitely kept you guessing I had a few people I suspected at the beginning and then my suspects changed midway through but never would I have guessed the ending.
There are lots of horror movie references and as in most horror movies you tend to hate the main character making stupid mistakes however the fact that the main character Alice was obsessed with horror movies and knew the mistakes that everyone always made and still did them but justified them to herself was very annoying.
Also did I mention the ending? I have so many questions!
