This book was just okay. I was expecting something more like Scream. All it was was a genre-aware book, with a backstory that was way too long, a middle that was full of unnecessary explanations, and a predictable (but satisfying) ending. The best part of the book happened between 75-90 percent of the way through. If it was about a hundred pages shorter I would've liked it more.
