4.5

 I absolutely tore through this disturbing and brutal slasher novel that evokes American Psycho, Georges Batailles, halloween music and kids cartoons. Told from the point of view of Maeve, a Hollywood heiress and deranged murderer who portrays the extremely popular "Ice Princess" at the "Happiest Place on Earth," this excellent horror novel holds nothing back as her rampage through Tinseltown unfolds. Completely blood-soaked and upsetting throughout, but at times hilarious, touching, and even steamily romantic. Extremely high recommendation from me, but certainly check the content warnings on this one.
