#TheBookwormRevolution

This was a fun, not-to-be-taken-seriously book. I've seen some complaints that the action builds too slowly or that the characters should notice the strange things going on sooner, but I found that to be part of the charm of this book. ⬇️

I wanted to like it, and that‘s why I didn‘t DNF, but nothing happens until 70% of the book. & not in a slow burn/tension building sort of way: I‘m talking confusion that could be resolved in a 5 minute conversation, the glaringly obvious being treated as mysterious, stupid melodramatic side plots. The ending was action packed & rambunctious, but also silly. Can‘t recommend.

It started off a bit slow, but then really picked up. I think it‘s best to go into this not really knowing what it‘s about, it‘ll add to the creepy/suspense feels.

Perfect for fans of The Lost Boys, a retelling on the 80s movie. This book was funny, gory and full of small town vibes. Though a little slow, it's definitely worth reading for a funny yet action packed story!

4¼⭐
This one is for all the readers who can‘t stand when the heroine in a vampire book is completely unable to see that the guy she thinks is so hot, is really just a blood-sucking killer. It also helps if you have a soft spot for anything remotely similar to the movie The Lost Boys (w/ Kiefer Sutherland) &/or Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Overall I found this to be a refreshing take on the YA Vampire books.

What do you get when you take the Lost Boys, The Craft and those sirens singing in the river from Oh Brother Where Art Thou and toss 'em in a big ol' literary blender?

In Nightfall by Suzanne Young

Simultaneously nostalgic and fresh, In Nightfall is a delicious YA paranormal fiction with MAJOR 80s teen horror vibes, just with fewer mullets and ALL the girl power.

This was such a fun, campy read that actually kind of kept me guessing.
