I've heard so much hype about this book, and I'm glad to say it was all *mostly* true. When I read a title that says "Final Girl Support Group," my first thought is, of course, "Well, how did they become final girls?" And I was slightly annoyed with how long it took to reveal each girls background story while still leaving some of their current information out. However predictable the first plot twist was, I was not prepared for the ending. I think the author did a great job of making the reader really feel for these girls and root for them to succeed once more, but if I'm being honest, although surprising, the ending fell a bit flat when it came to execution. But what can you do? Can't have everything tied up with someone nice bow when it comes to thrillers now, can you?
