Summer Rental is about a group of friends that go on a beach vacation for their last celebration after graduation. But when they find out their rental is a famous murder house weird things start happening and people start going missing. This book reminds me of a 90s slasher movie and I loved it! The writing was really well done and it made you connect with the characters. I didn’t guess the ending but after I go back through the story I notice little breadcrumbs through the story. There were a couple of times Riley was a little too paranoid for my liking but overall she was a good MC. I would love to read other books by this author.
This book is great for anyone who loves a 90s slasher with mean girls and secrets.
I received an arc of this book and am leaving an honest review.
