Dubbed the new girl, she is pleasantly surprised when she finds out that they know the details of what happened last year, and agree to keep her secret within the group. Once initiated, Rachel finds solace and friendship with her new friends Freddie, Thayer, Bram, and Felicity. Initially, Rachel makes some enemies, and then unknowingly sees something happen at a party that leads her on a path toward a secret society called the Mary Shelley Club. Fast forward one year and we see Rachel at a new school, trying to move past the home invasion and make new friends, but it's hard when the majority of the student population comes from elite families and you're only there on scholarship because your mom is a teacher. In the struggle, one of the men runs and is never caught, but the other stays and tragedy ensues. Rachel Chavez is at home, texting her best friend, when suddenly two masked men break in and attack her.
The book opens with a night like any other, or so we imagine. Dare I say it left the door open for a sequel? Maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part, but I wouldn't be mad about getting a few more answers to the happenings in Rachel's life and seeing how things play out after that final sentence. If you're a fan of the Scream franchise, this book is a must read. "The brain does curious things when suddenly presented with something it cannot comprehend."įinally, a new release that I've been highly anticipating that lived up to the hype! While I wasn't expecting so much of the plot to be filled with contemporary YA day-to-day drama, I still enjoyed the creepy vibe this story gave out.

If only surviving in real life were this easy. X If there’s a murderer on the loose, do not make out with anyone. X Stay don’t split up, not even just to “check something out.” X Avoid abandoned buildings, warehouses, and cabins at all times.
