Mister Tender's Girl by Carter Wilson
4.0
I think this is based on the Slender Man case...that I completely didn't understand. I had to ask the kid. Apparently two girls stabbed a girl because Slender Man told them to do it.
Okkkkaayyy.
This story is about Alice who was stabbed by two twin girls and left for dead when she was fourteen. The girls were trying to impress a character from a series of graphic novels called Mister Tender. Mister Tender was a bartender/demon who would give you whatever your heart desired if you did little jobs for him.
The topper was...Alice's dad was the author of the books.
Now years later Alice has moved to the states and has changed her name in hopes of escaping her past. Then she gets a never released copy of a Mister Tender book featuring some images of herself. She realizes that there are some Mister Tender followers that are a tad bit over the line. Including one that calls himself Mr. Interested.
This read fast and several times I thought 'what the heck.' It did keep me entained and even though some parts of it were just over the top I still had fun. So what the heck...I'm giving it four stars.
