It read like they watched the first Friday the 13th and then decided that what it was lacking was a secret society, owls and magic (?)/rituals I guess

If you like slasher movies, you will probably like this. It felt like the author had fun capturing the atmosphere and violent action of the genre. There were a couple things that caught me by surprise, some twists I saw coming, and some things that I'm still a little unsure how to explain. I really liked the main character Charity and her friends (although I do think the book overused the title "final girl" a bit).

This was amazing!!! The plot twists left my jaw on the floor and I sped through just trying to desperately see how it all ended. 10 out of 10, would highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun slasher horror experience.

A good read, but some of the villains made zero sense. Owls?🤨
