It took a few chapters for me to get on board. I was intrigued by the fact that our girl's dad was a serial killer and that she knew and made no excuses. But her bad af attitude was a huge turn off for me.

But thankfully there was a fantastic line up of supporting characters that made this story enjoyable and after a few reveals/flashbacks and understanding I stopped disliking Temple. She can thank Callie, Brenda, and Yaya for that.

This was a fun read that I'd love to see adapted to the big screen. I appreciated the LGBTQ Rep & the fact that the setting was a Horror Themed Summer Camp that was specifically for POC and Queer youths.
