It’s all fun and games…until someone dies.
16 years
ago, Abbie Reed’s home was invaded by a stranger with a ghoulish tattoo. That
man killed her sister. Ever since then, she’s been traumatized…and watched.
A loner all
her life, Abbie never really felt what it was like to be lonely. After all, how
can you miss not having friends when you never had any to begin with? Abbie
wanted “true friends” like Buffy, Willow, and Xander.
Now, Abbie
is turning 21. A group decides to throw her a party, which starts off slow and
boring, until someone suggests playing 21 Dares. The dares start off innocent
enough, ones typically done for a drunken laugh. But then it becomes serious
when someone dies. Overwhelmed with fear and panic, Abbie decides to quit and
go home. Then she’s asked, “What would Buffy do?”
Book
captured me from the start, and I especially loved the Buffy the Vampire Slayer references. Haven’t thought of that show
in a long time. My only criticism was
the typographical errors, which I can normally overlook if the story is
well-done, but this one had way too many. That’s why I rated this just shy of 5
stars.
A thrilling
suspenseful mystery!
My rating: 4.5 stars
