Dash and Seek by Amy Koto

4.0

This owes a lot to Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer and those sorts of meta-horror. It is fun, fast-paced, and doesn't have any padding.

The characters are mostly okay it is just that the author leaned way too heavily on tropes for them. Most of their backstories involved cheating to get ahead in some area and each character is given their reveal when their name is called in the game. They reminded me way too much of the typical CW show type characters. You know, pretty people with problems. They were not without their charms though. (This is just a personal taste thing here, use your best judgment.)

It was well-written throughout though and every scene whether they were simply driving in a car, hanging out in a tiny apartment, or running for their lives in a haunted house attraction everything was brought to life with great detail.

Since it moves so fast and involves a murder mystery that I wanted to know the results of this was easy and enjoyable to read overall. It wasn't very gory but it had its fair share of action and violence. The way it all wraps up didn't try to insult you or pull a fast one on you and was intelligently done.
