Powerful and horrific, this is historical fiction that is very timely for how society is developing today. This is horror from Grady Hendrix but not as you know it. It's not fun and campy like you would expect. The horror in this story comes from the stories and experiences of the girls so don't go into it expecting the normal GH reading experience.
I loved this one, it's very different and incredibly well handled. So surprising how a male writer has told the story of female experience. It's written with care and sensitivity and feels truly empathetic of what these girls are going through. The characters feel fully realised and human and without any kind of trite clichés that can normally be found.
