- Plot- or character-driven? Plot

- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
2.0
Cheesy little teen horror novel - it was heavier on the high school drama than the scares, unfortunately, and only one of the characters really felt like a person to me. The secret thing that's going on is kind of the silliest possible way you could do this plotline.
Graphic: Bullying, Fatphobia, Racial slurs, and Religious bigotry
Moderate: Ableism, Animal cruelty, Animal death, Infidelity, Racism, and Alcohol
Minor: Confinement, Domestic abuse, Violence, Vomit, Antisemitism, Stalking, Death of parent, and Fire/Fire injury
