This book was both "hit" and "miss" for me. The Slasher trivia bits from Jade were entertaining and delightful, and overall I liked her as a main character. The scary/gorey parts were great, and easy to visualize horror-movie-style. And the mystery to the whole plot was well done. The pacing was off for me though. The book takes a while to get into anything horror/spooky/creepy, and then it all kind of happens at once in the last 15%. The ending also wasn't satisfactory, but this is the first in a trilogy, so I'm chalking it up to that. It took me a minute to adapt to SGJ's writing style, specifically his dialogue. It isn't bad, but it is unique at times. And more than once I had to reread a sentence or two to understand what was being said. I did like this book, and am looking forward to reading the sequel. It was a fun take on a slasher story, with a lot of different elements happening simultaneously to constantly keep it interesting.
