For all the weirdo girlies who like a little female rage, as a treat." -- Hey YA by BookRiot "Debut author Crowley combines Stephen King's Pet Sematary with Courtney Summers's Sadie in this supernatural thriller. . . . Sardonic first-person narration by rough-around-the-edges Annie is further enhanced by snappy repartee, both of which elevate a plot that covers well-trod ground to a surprising and earned conclusion." -- Publishers Weekly "Horror-fueled adventure. . . . The visceral language in Crowley's debut punctuates the nonstop action and brings the eerie supernatural scenes to life." -- Kirkus Reviews, "A wholly original exploration of what it means to be a modern female, with a depth of rage that echoes into the afterlife." -- Mindy McGinnis , Edgar Award-winning author of Female of the Species Number of Pages: 304 Pages
