Reviews

[Amber (The Literary Phoenix)]

While HOW TO SURVIVE A HORROR MOVIE isn't going to win any major awards from me, I did think it was an amusing little aside to break up the monotony of some of the heavier reads I've been indulging as of late. It's good for those familiar enough with the horror genre to know it's patterns and tropes, but not so protective of it that they aren't able to enjoy a little good-natured teasing. It's a light, quick book to amuse the reader, and then be forgotten.

Also, if you really did wind up in a horror movie, reading this book would probably actually help? The advice seems solid.

Warning: Harmful language for intellectual disabilities was used in the version I read. It's unacceptable and outdated and I hope later editions were more sensitive. It is not excessive, but the word was used once or twice.

For a more detailed review or to check out my other bookish content, fly on over to The Literary Phoenix.

This book is similar to the Zombie Survival guide only less serious. It's a fairly quick read and it will get a few chuckles from you with every section.
