Read For:

90s’ Nostalgia
Family Business

Southern Charm

Slaying the Dead

Strong Women MC’s

This made me think of “The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires” (but well written) meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer. 

It gave the small town vibes and a secret only a few knew about.  Yet, there was still a great balance between horror and comedy.

Definitely something that would be fun to read with a book club tbh.  There was drama, mystery, and of course, horror all throughout with some good old southern charm tying it all together.

Thank you to NetGalley, Lindy Ryan, St. Martin’s Press, and Minotaur Books for this ebook ARC in exchange for a review.
