THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

VOTED GOODREADS CHOICE AWARD BEST HORROR NOVEL OF 2021

A Good Morning America Buzz Pick

“The horror master…puts his unique spin on slasher movie tropes.”-USA Today

A can't-miss summer read, selected by The New York Times, Oprah Daily, Time, USA Today, The Philadelphia Inquirer, CNN, LitHub, BookRiot, Bustle, Popsugar and the New York Public Library

In horror movies, the final girls are the ones left standing when the credits roll. They made it through the worst night of their lives…but what happens after?


Like his bestselling novel The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires, Grady Hendrix’s latest is a fast-paced, frightening, and wickedly humorous thriller. From chain saws to summer camp slayers, The Final Girl Support Group pays tribute to and slyly subverts our most popular horror films—movies like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Scream.

Lynnette Tarkington is a real-life final girl who survived a massacre. For more than a decade, she’s been meeting with five other final girls and their therapist in a support group for those who survived the unthinkable, working to put their lives back together. Then one woman misses a meeting, and their worst fears are realized—someone knows about the group and is determined to rip their lives apart again, piece by piece.
 
But the thing about final girls is that no matter how bad the odds, how dark the night, how sharp the knife, they will never, ever give up.

Yung Shawty tbh ,

caithayes ,

There were good parts

There were good parts or this book but overall I felt like it missed the mark

SKITTLES!!!! ,

Came for the promise of horror, wasn’t the least bit distraught

I found this book recommendation on booktok. I had high hopes for it, however the beginning was painfully slow the writing read like a wattpad fan fiction to the point I’d have to reread it several times. The author portrays the main protagonist as an idiot, the entire time it was just a joke about how women are weak and they will never escape the atrocities of men. Also the ending absolute let down, saw it from a mile away. I was majority let down in the horror aspect as well, I wanted something other than Stephen king to read and this book was not the vibe. However if it became a movie adaptation it might do better, and maybe they won’t portray these women as timid and weak.
