A review by coralinejones
I Was a Teenage Slasher by Stephen Graham Jones

Did not finish book. Stopped at 40%.

I'm sorry but this novel is so boring. It's interesting to be inside the mind of a Michael Meyers'-like killer but the execution of this concept does not work here. Maybe it's because I don't care about any of these characters, especially the protagonist, in any capacity. Maybe it's because I find slashers more interesting when we know nothing about them. Just a deranged individual set out to kill as many people as possible just because. The mystery of these characters from the point of view of the prey is what really drives me to slasher movies and novels, to be honest. 

Not to mention, I've tried reading Jones' other works and I think I've come to the conclusion that his writing just isn't for me. Which is okay!
