Praise for Slasher Girls & Monster Boys:
If your idea of an excellent summer night is telling ghost stories around the campfire, you'll be jumping for (horrific) joy over Slasher Girls & Monster Boys.-Bustle
Terrifying and new . . . There's nary a clunker in the collection-this is satisfying, disturbing horror for the modern YA audience. -Publishers Weekly

Satisfyingly diverse and compelling. . . . The majority of the protagonists are female [but] not one is a helpless victim.

After encountering the horrors here, variously supernatural and disturbingly human, readers may want to leave the lights on.-The Horn Book
Will scare, thrill, and terrify.-VOYA
A ton of terrifying mini thrillers that take inspiration from classic stories. There's a bit of supernatural in here, some gore-filled-horror, terrifying creatures . . . something for everybody.-Book Riot
