I really was not expecting to like Banner going into this, but he really came through and I found him an interesting "outsider" type of character to follow in contrast to Letha and Jade. In general it was cool to get to know some of the other characters featured in the first book in-depth, and involving the kids who survived the massacre in Chainsaw was a very fun move. This one really moves into a full-on teen-killing slasher VERY quick and I had a great time with it. I do wish we got a little bit more discussion about
Its pace is significantly quicker than Chainsaw but it is about the same length, which I think works both for and against it. It ramps up the action fast and never takes its foot off the pedal, but as I noted there is a lot of literal back-and-forth and characters traverse the town which can make things hard to follow especially in conjunction with Jones's writing style. Even so, a great sequel in my opinion; very excited to read The Angel of Indian Lake.
