I had a lot of fun reading this one! I didn't like how it jumped from pov to pov without any warning, though. That made reading this a bit confusing at times. However, I loved how Gomez took elements from different and campy 80's horror movies and gave it his own spin. I'm a bit of a horror fan myself so, I really enjoyed that aspect of it. Even the supernatural elements sprinkled in (very Jason Voorhees type feel). I think this book was meant to a fun, campy (no pun intended, haha!) experience and it definitely delivered. Even though the characters did come off a bit immature for their age, I thought they were very realistic for the setting and the vibe that this book was going for. I want more from Sergio Gomez, for sure!
