If you like the Scream movies, this is the book for you. Non-binary lead, the main characters/love interest actually communicate, and so funny. Also hallelujah the cat lives! And so does the lesbian!

That’s all you get. Read this book right now or I’m coming to your house and flushing all your socks.

Thanks to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for this eARC in exchange for an honest review.

Scream meets You're Next with a splash of Happy Death Day in this ya horror novel that'll have you howlin' in fear!

Horror is my favorite genre; it's my go-to for comfort. When I saw the cover of this book, I screamed with delight—it immediately caught my attention and reminded me of one of my favorite horror movies, "Creep." We all know what I'm talking about, so it was a no-brainer for me to get my hands on a copy.

The story began in typical slasher fashion, featuring a great backstory, a terrifying villain, and an even better climax. However, I was disappointed with the big reveal(s). Who was behind those tell-all books? And who was the person wearing the big, scary wolf mask? I guessed the answers as soon as that character appeared. When everything was finally revealed, I shouted, "I told you!" Unfortunately, no one knew what I was talking about, and I was shushed in my own library. Ugh!

Although I figured out the plot early on, I still found enjoyment in the elements that unfolded along the way. It was a lot of fun and quite gory—who doesn't appreciate a bit of gore on a rainy fall day? The intense atmosphere really contributes to the appeal of this story, making it likely that readers will fall in love with it.

"How to Survive a Slasher" was an enjoyable read, although I felt a bit let down by the ending. Figuring out who was behind the events was somewhat disheartening, but I still found myself enjoying the rest of the story. I believe horror fans will appreciate this book for what it has to offer.
