The book desperately needed a prologue to help us understand and empathize with a relatively large ensemble cast. It was a fun, quick read, but it left some gaping plot holes and could be hard to follow. It read a lot more like a screenplay than a traditional novel at times, leaving the reader to fill in the blanks and try to make sense of what was going on. However, for someone that isn't too into slasher films, I didn't find it unnecessarily gory. There were some gross bits, but nothing was so descriptive that it was off putting.
