Had me going there for a minute, bud. The twist got me. 

Truly despicable characters, all of them, and a unreliable narrator trope that isn't exactly what it seems. This was fun, and while I don't normally like books that end all wrapped up with a bow, this one felt complete.

  • Started off pretty strong and was intrigued with the pine cottage chapters. 
  • 38% in and sin wondering where this is all going to go. It feels like Sam has an agenda, but to what? Money for exposing her?
  • 50% in and am interested that one of the other final girls was murdered 
  • Dropped this book for a little bit as my loan had lapsed. Back into it and wondering where it’s going to go from here. 
  • Quincy being the murderer would be a twist I could see this author going with. 
    • Alright alright I wasn’t expecting that! Coop being the murderer and staying close to Quincey wasn’t in my theories.
    • Also didn’t see Tina not actually being Sam.

Finished this in a day. It was entertaining but the plot twist was weak. It was unexpected, but not great. Too many coincidences. When the mystery was revealed I was like "Really? That's it?".
