Lighten up, would you? We’re eighteen. We’re too young for anything bad to happen.
I love books, scary movies and Regina George so naturally I was excited to read a book described as “Mean Girls meets Scream.” This was a fun lil summer slasher! It definitely lives up to the description, although instead of “you can’t sit with us” mean you get a ‘we’re toxic, but stick together cause we’re rich’ kind of mean amongst the friend group. The suspense was mediocre, in my opinion, but I enjoyed reading the typical outrageous/not-so-smart decisions made when a serial killer is on the loose 😂
I’d recommend this as a palate cleanser if you read a lot of thrillers or horror.
