Set in a word where the campy horror film franchises I enjoyed in my teens (and the odd sleep over of my tweens)are based on real events. The Final girls are still dealing (or not) with the consequences of the life defining “crisis” and “sequels” that happened in their formative years.
While elements of the book are truly stomach turning, the fantasy element and Easter eggs allowed me to read the book with a level of detached enjoyment. That’s not to say I wasn’t effected and didn’t have to keep a of the lights turned on while reading!
Fast paced with short chapters and epistolary elements I raced through t the satisfy bloody finish.
I can see myself reading more from this author
