Absolutely thrilling slasher. Do not read in the dark!! The daughter of a serial-killer revisits her home while being a student counselor to this horror camp for Black queer teens to figure out if her mother was really killed by her father. I LOVE how uplifting this book is which is a weird thing to say about a slasher. But it truly is.

Also, the content alert says there is description of transphobia but I didn't notice any. Entirely possible it escaped me, but I also thought how cool it is that this book normalizes being queer & not having to deal with the usual fears of racism & queer-phobia.

I also loved how kick-ass cool the protagonist is and the other main characters. Finally, give me a protagonist who doesn't do silly & wild things again and again to move the plot forward. This protagonist has Plan A, Plan B AND Plan C figured out. YES.

If you lock me in a room and tell me I have to criticize something about this book, then I will tell you, I wish we had more of a backstory to the main villain. I guess the lack of backstory helps with the surprise but I wish we had more of a story there.

Run to buy this book or place a hold in your library systems if you like slasher horror!!
