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.
