This was Cordie’s first horror book ever, and she liked how the TV Head is a monster and I liked the main character Ethan dealing with anxiety and overcoming his fears to save his friends. I also loved the aspect of standing up to adults and defending your passions.

I kept spacing out while listening, wasn’t following the plot or characters. Might try again another time, just wasn’t vibing this time.
