I dare you to pick up this book and be okay at the end. If you are, I'd like to talk to you about moving far, far away from me, you messed up person. 😵

That was when I decided that all the ghost stories got it wrong: evil isn’t a spirit or a monster or a ghost. It lives inside regular people, and it doesn’t know the difference between night and day.

Throughout this story, you'll find yourself suspicious of everyone and rooting to figure out who is trying to screw over Kacey, who is new to town with more packed baggage than the average teen. I had myself wondering if the local legend was at play. I was half convinced that maybe the Winchester brothers were going to pop out and clean up some mean ghosties. But no, just your run of the mill HUMAN PSYCHOPATH. As to who it is, well, you'll have to read to find out. Or listen, and be totally creeped out like I was.

I really love thrillers and I really love thrillers where you uncover these intense, mosaic teen relationships that remind you that girls are not all sugar and spice and everything nice. I like a little murder, too. I also like when they're solved and you can go back and see the pieces you missed along the way. Little Monsters drops hints like The Sixth Sense and at the end you're like OF COURSE...but wait, what?

I also love small towns and complicated family dynamics. I totally got a Stepford meets Cruel Intensions vibe along the way here. This book is dark and twisted and I am here for Kara dominating this market. No one makes it out of this book without needing a therapist, not even the reader.
