Clown in a Cornfield is a bloody good time. Adam Cesare has a knack for writing YA prose that sounds youthful, but not jouvenile. While set today, there's almost a nostalgic feel with the adults vs the children atmosphere. It's like if Footloose was a horror story that swapped dancing for vlogging. Because it's YA, it's never too gory. It flows nicely and is a fast read. I totally recommend.

I am hoping to come back to this, but I simply lost interest. I listened to this via audio, and that may have played a part. I struggle with audiobooks occasionally. The book is super interesting and it’s a fun slasher that would be great to read during the month of October or any time you want to read something spooky.
