Resurrection High: A Black Comedy by Joseph Sullivan, John Brhel
4.0
Thank you to the author for sending me a copy in exchange for my review!
I enjoyed this lighthearted little tale. I agree with others that it is more of a dark comedy than horror, but I enjoyed it all the same. The 90's references were well placed and it felt like a macabre 'Ready Player One' for 90's babies.
The book perfectly captured both the feelings of being a teen and the grief when losing someone too soon. I appreciate the protagonist's perspective, and thought it was an interesting way to visit the topic of death.
I only wish that we were given more information about our 'ghosts' in the story; just because I felt that their explanation was a little rushed or brushed over. Otherwise, this is a quick and enjoyable read that I took a liking to almost instantly.
