"The Final Girl Support Group" has finally won me over to Grady Hendrix. Any mention to an 80s slasher tends to draw me in but, in this renaissance of 80s horror in literature, "The Final Girls Support Group" stands King of the crop.
The main protagonist, Lynette, continues to be delightfully dangerous throughout the novel, at some points not truly convincing me she was the correct one. The main plot of the final girls attacked, all feels like a mad woman pulling at strings at first. It all culminates into a homage to the 80s slasher.
Truly, a great sequel to some masters of horror.
