My Heart Is a Chainsaw

banshee.reviews shared a tip "Very slow read until about 2/3 of the way in. It felt like there was a lot of filler, or scenes that could have been cut short without making it any worse. Ambiguous ending, if that is the kind of thing that bothers you."

olivia_huie shared a tip "Definitely a book to add to your list if you love horror and slashers. The buildup is slow, but the last half of the book comes fast. It’s not your typical kind of slasher/final girl read, but definitely worth the wild ride."

leighanneslit shared a tip "This book was one of the stranger things I have read recently, but it was still enjoyable! An ode to slashers, this book takes the typical devices and creates something new, but has a heart to go along with it. It is a different writing style that can take some getting used to, but it’s worth a shot if you are a fan of the slasher genre!"

erin_dalrymple_ shared a tip "I had high hopes since it was deemed "the best horror of the year," but was sadly let down. The first 280 pages are basically the author spewing his horror slasher trivia knowledge at you with no real horror happening in the book. I will say once the gore finally happens it happens fast, but the ending was still lacking."

kelsey_dierdorff shared a tip "If you love horror and slashers, this is the book for you. Some people have said the build up is slow, but I generally appreciated the entire book and all of the backstory. So glad this was my first read of 2023. Looking forward to reading the sequel to this."

jess_ament shared a tip "Sad to say I had to DNF this a little over halfway through. I loved The Only Good Indians but the stream of consciousness from this narrator paired with poor pacing made this painful to read. I’m bummed because I was so excited by the description, but ultimately let down by the writing itself."

azriel_cruz shared a tip "The twists and turns are made even better by having such a unique character as the (unreliable) narrator of this incredible story. No more needs to be said. It’s a must read for horror fans, it’s checks so many thriller/horror boxes"
