Review

New Favorite Alert!

This was such a fun camp slasher novel that was so hard to put down. I didn't want to go to work, I just wanted to be with these characters having fun at camp before all hell broke loose. This was a slow burn, which 9/10 does not work for me but in this case it SO worked. It gave me time to care about each of the characters, and I really cared what happened to them.

My time at Camp Safe Woods was so enjoyable and while some of the dialogue is a bit cringy and the kill scenes are over the top that is what made me love it so much. It felt like an 80s movie. Plus, the cover is definitely one of my favorites that I own.

The cover is also a 10/10

Final Recommendation: For everyone! This is now something I will ALWAYS
