Ok listen...was this book /objectively/ a 5 star, no. It was a super fun super corny halloween book. But the characters???? I was SO invested in their stories and felt really moved by them. I felt that this really captured coming of age/growing up in such a real way. Depicting family issues and teenage relationships in a way that every one has felt and can relate to. I could put myself in every character's shoes and cared for everyone in the story. The horror elements were silly and corny but fun and perfect for halloween time, but I think the character writing is really where this book shines.
