dark tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

5.0

By far my favorite anthology! I have recently gotten into reading horror anthologies and was really excited to see another one I could get my eyes on. I am so glad I got to read this book and cannot stop recommending it to everyone! Though my average rating of all the stories ended up being about 4.5 stars, The White Guy Dies First is an overall 5 star read for me. 

This anthology is an entertaining collection of 13 scary stories by 13 authors of color, the stories are unique, fun, and chilling and left me desperately wanting more. From a circus and clown based horror to increasingly unhinged diary entries. There's a story of home invasion, possession, a lonely haunted house and so much more. I am happy to report that I have many new authors to keep my eye out for!
