Not the most well-written teen thriller but if you like a campy/gory/entertaining quick read, this is the book for you!

This book was disappointing to say the least. Although it was a good thriller, because it was entertaining and gruesome, I think the plot and the characters were very underdeveloped. It is a good quick read, but the plot lacked alot of…

A teenage girl’s move from Hawaii to small-town Nebraska is complicated by the serial killer targeting students at her high school. I found myself squealing in equal parts fright and delight as I raced through this extremely fun book,…

I absolutely love this book. The plot was very thrilling and enjoyable to read. I also liked the romance in this book. Though other reviews say that the killer had very little impact, personally I think it did.

Contrary to the majority of the reviews, I really enjoyed this book. I liked the romance between Ollie and Makani. Her backstory made me really mad about the parents/society in a situation they created for her. I was sucked in to the…

This was...not great. I can get behind gore, I can get behind romance. I can even get behind a bit of a silly murder plot. The killer’s identity made little impact because I had no idea who he was to begin with, revealing him made no…

This was...not great. I can get behind gore, I can get behind romance. I can even get behind a bit of a silly murder plot. But something about this just didn’t work. Makani Young has moved from Hawaii to Nebraska to live with her…

[CONTAINS SPOILERS] This was a fun departure from Stephanie Perkins' other books - everything else of hers I have read is very much YA romance, so I wasn't quite sure what to expect from this book. I was surprised by how intense and…

Makani Young moved away from a life she loved in Hawaii to dull and boring Nebraska for one reason: to escape from her old life. She once thought her life was perfect and idyllic, but is now shattered by a few stupid mistakes. Her life is…

If you are a fan of the movie SCREAM you will love this book. This book is EXACTLY like the movie Scream only in book form. (SPOILER) Literally the opening of this book is exactly like the opening from the movie, in the sense that they…

Teen slasher movie in novel form. Good fun.

This was a quick-paced novel that was easy to read and I was intrigued to read. The relationship between the protagonists did seem a bit forced so it was hard for me to get into the book at the beginning. The characters were decent but…

This book was amazing! I would just like to give props to the author, Stephanie Perkins, for the captivating writing and the riveting death scenes. This book is definitely one of my all time favorite books. If you like this book as well as…

Not impressed at all. The killer is revealed way too soon ruining any mystery the book had. The main character's big reveal hardly added to making any logical sense with the outcome. The town has a serial killer and people keep going out…

Very good thriller novel! Perkins really got my blood pumping during each murder scene and my adrenaline racing as the town raced to find the murderer! There was also an appropriate amount of romance, which prevented the novel from…

Fun and fast paced. Reminded me of the Netflix series Scream.

Gory and bloody and not at all Perkins usual but I could still enjoy the characters and her writing.

I found this book hilarious and laughed so many times while reading it. Yes it's gory and yes it's sometimes a little predictable, but I still enjoyed reading it.

I'm not going to lie, I expected a lot more out of this book. It also took about five turns in the direction of boring and predictable and that made me sad. I guess I shouldn't have been surprised that a romance was really the center of…

This book was scary and made me think of a good teen slasher flick....until about the halfway point. Then the murderer was revealed very early and the story lost a lot of its momentum for me. The killer's motive is not revealed until the…

It was okay. The teen slasher concept was interesting and that element of it was well done, but the main character I thought was rather annoying. She moves to Nebraska because of a "dark secret" that is quite a letdown when you finally…

Someone is killing students at Osborn High, but they like to play with them first. As the hunt for the killer becomes more intense, no one knows who the next victim may be. It was slasher creepy, but not overly so. This isn't a book that…
