Did you have a little sister who rented the Scream movies repeatedly and watched them with you over and over? If so, this book is meant for you.
This is a delightful YA horror that doesn’t take itself too seriously and has all of the tropes you know that you’re dying to read. (hehe)
Devon and Drew are twins but could not be more different. Drew is a genius and goes to a private school where Devon couldn’t care less about her sisters fancy school and rich friends. They have had the same close friend group since childhood and decide before Drew graduates early, that they will hang out with her private school friends. Then all hell breaks loose.
Rushing to fight a supernatural being and follow all the rules of a horror movie, our group grows up a little bit more, finding their bravery and finally being honest with each other.
I loved this book. It was such a fun time. I highly recommend it if you have a soft spot for silly slasher horror movies that make you spill the popcorn as your screams dissolve into giggles, but also love a good coming of age story where our characters grow and develop and learn together.
