My Heart is a Chainsaw

Beschreibung

Some girls just don't know how to die. Jade Daniels is an outcast in a town that wants nothing to do with her. Now, one class away from dropping out of school, she is pouring her life and soul into her last assignment - a personal history of horror films. But Proofrock doesn't rest easy; as Jade dives deep into the history of her hometown - the missing tourists, the drowned church in Indian Lake, the tragic deaths at camp years ago - the town strives to keep her trapped. But outcasts still laugh and fight and cry and love fiercely, and even as the terror descends, and the blood flows, they never, ever give up.

_ "This extraordinary novel is an essential purchase."-Kirkus, Starred Review

"A homage to slasher films that also manages to defy and transcend genre. You don't have to be a slasher fan to read My Heart is a Chainsaw, but I guarantee that you will be after you read it."-Alma Katsu, author of The Deep and The Hunger

"Brutal, beautiful, and unforgettable, My Heart Is a Chainsaw is a visceral ride from start to finish. A bloody love letter to slasher fans, it's everything I never knew I needed in a horror novel."-Gwendolyn Kiste, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Rust Maidens

"Stephen Graham Jones

can't miss. My Heart Is A Chainsaw is a painful drama about trauma, mental health, and the heartache of yearning to belong...twisted into a DNA helix with encyclopedic Slasher movie obsession and a frantic, gory whodunnit mystery, with an ending bothsavage and shocking. Don't say I didn't warn you!" -Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of Ararat and Red Hands

"Stephen Graham Jones masterfully navigates the shadowy paths between mystery and horror. An epic entry in the slasher canon." -Laird Barron, author of Swift to Chase
