Clown in a Cornfield 2: Frendo Lives by Adam Cesare
4.0
3.5 stars rounded up
In the follow-up to Clown in a Cornfield, we follow Quinn, Cole, and Rust as they continue to be terrorized by various Frendos. The first book ended with a great set-up for a part two, and this definitely delivered. There was such a sense of dread and terror since there were so many Frendos and you never knew who was in on it and who you could trust.
This was definitely plot-driven rather than character driven, and while I enjoyed how fast the story flew by, I would've loved to gotten to know our main characters a little better. We got a few glimpses of how they were traumatized by the events of the previous book, but there could've been a lot more. There are so many POVs that we really only spend a little time with each person. I also enjoyed the slasher action that was quite descriptive and gross; it reminded me of slasher films like Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer.
Overall a solid sequel! Thank you to NetGalley for the advance copy.
