Kill River by Cameron Roubique
4.0
I thought this was a lot of fun. Don’t expect fantastic writing - this is more of a grown-up Goosebumps, sprinkled with a bunch of F-bombs.
Things I loved:
❤️ 80s nostalgia and new wave soundtrack
❤️ Abandoned water park setting
❤️ Cyndi was a likable final girl
A few things that bothered me:
1️⃣ Why was there a theme park being built in the middle of the woods?(???) And why didn’t anyone in the area seem to know about it??
2️⃣ These kids haven’t eaten anything but a Twinkie in over a day - My fat ass couldn’t stop wondering why they didn’t spend any time looking for a food court or vending machine (or why a theme park wouldn’t have either)!
3️⃣ The killer had absolutely no back story or explanation. I kept waiting for some hint as to who he was.
4️⃣ So, after all that… the water park is still gonna open?
