Why read it?
2 authors picked The Final Girl Support Group as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The Final Girl Support Group captures the spirit of all of my favorite horror novels and movies, which is a mixture of scares and laughs.
This book is chock full of humor and terror while also managing to be terrifically original as it unpacks one of the most famous tropes in the horror genre: the “final girl” (i.e., the last surviving female character in a horror story, usually the one who confronts and ultimately defeats the antagonist in the story’s climax).
First of all, if you go into this book expecting a slasher story, you’ll be disappointed. While its characters are rooted in the horror genre, the story focuses more on thriller until its final act. However, the best thing about the book is its character development with its main character and the other Final Girls. While the plot collapses in on itself every so often, the character work keeps it afloat and provides the suspense to make the reader scared.
From Oliver's list on horror that focuses on character development.
