4.0

This has all of the nastiness (and more) of The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires. It has all the gross horror elements, but also (again, like the aforementioned book), the social commentary about the ignorance of adults (and 1980s society in general) is more horrifying. As other reviews have mentioned, it's incredibly frustrating to read about Abby's experiences being invalidated, but it works well.
