This was my first Grady Hendrix book and I was immediately a fan. The writing is fast and snappy and shows a definite love and appreciation for the Final Girls of the world. The ending twist is a bit sloppy, but I was still rooting for Lynnette the whole way. Definitely recommend if you like slasher films or older women overcoming their trauma in unexpected ways.
