This was such a wild, fun, and creepy ride. I’m not a horror person, I scare to easily but I’m a hard core Scream fan and this was definitely giving Scream 4 vibes. Vanessa and her dry, dark humor, and Asperger’s like personality was such and an amazing character. Her development narrated mostly through Kian’s POV was phenomenal. And just that little hint of a bond between her and Kian was an absolute delight. About halfway in this goes from scary to funny, suspenseful, and thrilling. I can’t help but hope Little Sistah Clarke makes this at least a 3 part series. I will be present and accounted for either way. The Clarke’s have a forever loyal reader in me.
