Horror movie enthusiast Charley is determined to keep a low profile when she's enrolled to a girls' boarding school on a remote island. That is, until someone starts killing off her senior class! From elaborate scare tactics to severed heads in fridges, Charley has found herself at the centre of a teen horror movie. And that's not the only alarming thing that's happening - she's now seeing the ghosts of her former classmates!? Haunted by her peers, and with everyone beginning to suspect her, Charley decides to do something about it. She and her only best friend Olive are going to solve the murders and find out who's killing off the class before graduation. Charley just needs those pesky ghosts to shut up and give her a hand...
How to Survive a Horror Movie features Charley, a senior at a remote boarding school who is just trying to make a fresh start and stay in the background. When her classmates begin dying, she sets out with her roommate Olivia to find the killer before it's too late.
I didn't love this one, but I didn't hate it. Charley is actually a fairly likable character. I kind of felt bad for her because she was really just trying to start over, yet she kept finding dead bodies. Which only brought more attention to her. Still it was predicable and if you pay attention to the book you will be able to call the killer pretty easily. I also think that it would have been better without the ghosts. Having it be more of a true teen slasher without the paranormal aspect, would have made me enjoy it more. The ghosts really took me out of the creepy atmosphere especially since they were kind of comical. Still it's a quick read and worth giving a shot.
