♡ Wholesome Friendships

This gave off great country horror vibes with a transmasc main character.  I absolutely loved it.  The writing style was nice and I really enjoyed the characters.

In a way it reminded me of the same queer horror vibes as an Andrew Joseph White book.  It was definitely worth reading.  This book has wholesome friendships, a mysterious and suspenseful plot that left me so curious as to what would happen by the end, comforting characters, and lovely queer rep.

Thank you to Penguin Teen, the author, and NetGalley for this eARC copy in exchange for an honest review.
