Synopsis

New York Times-bestselling author Goldy Moldavsky delivers a deliciously twisty YA thriller that's Scream meets Karen McManus about a mysterious club with an obsession for horror.

When it comes to horror movies, the rules are clear:

x Avoid abandoned buildings, warehouses, and cabins at all times.
x Stay together: don’t split up, not even just to “check something out.”
x If there’s a murderer on the loose, do not make out with anyone.

If only surviving in real life were this easy...

New girl Rachel Chavez turns to horror movies for comfort, preferring stabby serial killers and homicidal dolls to the bored rich kids of Manhattan Prep...and to certain memories she’d preferred to keep buried.

Then Rachel is recruited by the Mary Shelley Club, a mysterious society of students who orchestrate Fear Tests, elaborate pranks inspired by urban legends and movie tropes. At first, Rachel embraces the power that comes with reckless pranking. But as the Fear Tests escalate, the competition turns deadly, and it’s clear Rachel is playing a game she can’t afford to lose.

Star Rating: —> 5 Stars Honestly, there is absolutely no way I could give this any less than a 5 star rating. I started it today & just could NOT put. It. Down. It was all sorts of messed up, but I loved it! It actually scared me... which is HARD for a book to do! It had a few small issues for me, bu......more

Goodreads review by Rachel (TheShadesofOrange) on May 03, 2021

2.5 Stars I loved the idea of a character using horror films to cope with their own trauma. As an avid horror reader, I can certainly relate to finding comfort in the genre. My biggest complaints about this book come from my usual issues with YA novel. I found the characters to be young and immature,......more

Goodreads review by Amy on March 28, 2022

A self-aware horror movie trope-fest with intriguing drama and action to keep any mystery/thriller fan satisfied throughout the entire journey... Nice. Concept: ★★★ Pacing: ★★★★ Mystery(s)/Reveal(s): ★★★ Enjoyment: ★★★★ So let's be honest: this is not the most unique concept in the world. It wasn't suppo......more
