    There’s No Way I’d Die First was underrated; I happened to love this plot, the kill scenes, the ending, and all the references! I loved the shitty people who got slaughtered, and I loved the main character and her thought process through all this horror. 10/10 would recommend to slasher lovers!

    I enjoyed Tastes Like Candy immensely. The plot takes a little to start off, but whew, once it does??! Unmatched. I loved the atmosphere, the brutality of the killings, and even the crazed motive. However, it did frustrate me as the killer was an unhinged narcissist. One of my new favorite slasher!

    Dead Girls Can’t Tell Secrets was your average teen thriller with a lot of build-up and a mediocre ending. This plot line had so much potential, but it fell flat. I felt like there could’ve been more. The characters were well-developed, the setting was believable, and the writing style was decent.

    Little Creeping Things was an okay listen. It was quick, entertaining, and somewhat suspenseful. This was the second book I’ve read where an older brother went full Norman Bates and killed others for his baby sister and expected gratitude. One too many, if you ask me. 8/10 Worth the read.

    Honestly, I was disappointed. I loved the concept of the plot but felt that the potential it had was completely ignored. We know who the killer is right off the bat, which I’m not a fan of. It doesn’t leave much room for suspense so that banked on their escape.

    The Lake House was an okay read. Something to listen to as I did chores and during my commute. This novel wasn’t a true slasher. I’d say it’s more of a paranormal/psychological thriller. Two-thirds of the novel was the characters moving around the island and while fending off the wilderness.
