Chopping Spree

*Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with a copy of the book in exchange for a honest review.*
**3.5 rating
This story follows Penny, who works at 80s themed mall in a really hip clothing store.
Penny notices that her fellow coworkers are all wearing the same symbol. When she asks about it, they just blow her off. Wanting to fit in with them, she accepts an invitation to stay after closing and party in the store.
However, during the party, she hears a scream and finds another teenager has been stabbed. Doing everything they can, the group discovers that the teen wasn’t the only victim and there’s a killer on the loose.
However, the killers motive will lead Penny to learn some horrifying truth about the mall she works at.
These Rewind or Die books are so fun. They’re fast paced, quick, and easy to read.
I’ve made it my mission to read all of them eventually because they’re just fun little books.
The 80s feel is always a hit with me. It feels like reading a slasher movie, which is something that I thoroughly enjoy.
I really liked the setting of this book being inside a mall. I always used to want to accidentally get stuck in a mall after hours, but this book definitely makes me think twice about that.
I also liked the twist, it might have been a tiny predictable, but not fully.
I think the only thing I didn’t love about this book was the length. I know these books are supposed to be short quick reads, but I feel like 70 pages does such a disservice to the story. If it had been a bit longer, I think it could have been expanded upon more and really been a knockout.
I did enjoy it overall and would read more from this author in the future.
