You also can’t tell me that this wasn’t inspired by the January 6th insurrection.

Pre-ordered this back in August but only just now got around to reading it! Frendo is back, baby! But in what way? It’s a year after the Baypen Massacre in Kettle Springs and our heroes Quinn, Rust, and Cole are attempting to move on with their lives. However, when Quinn and her father are attacked on Halloween night in two separate places, it reveals a sinister plan based on conspiracies and extremist internet commentary. Overall, I really enjoyed this sequel! Adam portrays internet commentary so well it’s unsettling. It’s a great portrayal on how extreme people get online. Tragedies can happen and there are people who will accuse the survivors of it not happening/or it not being the real story(honestly, similar to some real life tragedies that have happened in the last couple of years). I really felt for our heroes in the book who have to continue life and going through the motions while having to deal with this type of commentary and conspiracies about them. I’m not gonna lie Rust and Cole’s relationship was a little frustrating to read at some points. While it’s clear they care about each other, it almost feels like they’re just staying together because they’re trauma bonded now. Cole is starting to become a little bit unlikeable. However, it’s great to have Quinn again as a character and the ending of this book with her is so so satisfying and badass. I do think the pacing of this book a little slow. With it being a slasher, i really wanted the action to happen a little bit quicker but when the action DOES happen, it’s extremely satisfying. I think this book as a whole is a great sequel to the original. The plot is fresh, with themes relevant to social commentary today and kills in this are wild. I can’t wait for Clown in a Cornfield 3!ridleyreadsthings's review against another edition

I love Quinn & Rust’s friendship and caretaking of each other without the eye-rolling romance involved! I think Rust is a unique character, he's into weapons but only is them for self-defense and tries to do as little damage as possible.
