Chopping Spree by Angela Sylvaine
3.0

3.5 stars

If you love modern stories that give a whole lotta love to 80s slashers, you're going to want to check out Chopping Spree. It's a short, fun ride, and the length of it works well — we get right to the quick of it, without any necessary development being sacrificed in the story itself. Despite the fact that there's a bit of predictability to the over-arching theme, I think it's a story you should go into knowing as little as possible, so I won't be the one to spoil you. I definitely look forward to reading more from Angela Sylvaine and I'm glad I picked this up!

NOTE: I usually only shelve books as adult or YA, but I wanted to mention that I think this book would appeal very widely to lovers of both age ranges!

Representation: the main character is queer (bi/pan, no specific label used)

Content warnings for:
Spoilermurder, violence, bombing, brief reference to death of a puppy



Thank you so much to the publisher for providing me with this review copy in exchange for an honest review!
