What it feels like
Reading this book feels like stepping straight into a 90s teen slasher flick, complete with high school theater drama and escalating, campy dread. The narrative moves at a brisk, breathless clip, engineered to keep you hooked with signature chapter-ending cliffhangers that demand just one more page. It wraps the reader in a deeply paranoid mood, where every locker slam and shadowed auditorium seat feels like a potential threat.
