Cool



I don't know how you can read that title and not feel an irresistible compulsion to pick this up

Fuckin' ruled

Indigenous teen girl obsessed with slasher films finds herself in one, and tries to convince anyone, particularly the new classmate she believes is the final girl, of what's going on, while also trying to identify the killer

Meanwhile, stand-ins for Bezos, Musk, etc. are gentrifying her tiny rural town, building a whole separate gated McMansion community on land they really shouldn't be using

I was sort of thinking there'd be a this is awesome, this is my wheelhouse and my dream kind of vibe from our heroine, but instead the book conveys this constant sense of dread in a really great way
