The Dead Girls Club by Damien Angelica Walters

I wanted to know who was chasing Heather! Is Becca still alive or is somebody acting like her? Is Red Woman real? So I kept turning pages to fill my void about learning the truth. And most of his early King stories, children suffer from traumatic experiences with supernatural things and then we see their future selves how could they fight against their childhood nightmares ( Like “It”, “Body”) Because it’s obvious, the author is inspired of Stephen King’s story. Maybe three little girls might have involved in Becca’s story and later, when somebody found out and threaten them about what they have done could be a better storyline. It’s hard to empathize her ! At some parts, I thought maybe she deserved what was happening to her. She is mostly acting like paranoid, hysterical with her weird giggles, making herself bleed, hitting her punches on steering wheel, suspicious moods about her husband and best friend. Because her future-self really irritated me. I wish this story wasn’t about only Heather. Her story is so heart wrenching, her obsession about Red Lady, her relationship with her abusive mother, her confusing mind who did not know how to differentiate the real or delusion. Rebecca is a quite demanding leader with her amazing imagination about telling horror stories ( If she didn’t die- or did she? We don’t know till the end of the book- she might compete with Stephen King and Joe Hill with her quite riveting storytelling). What I liked about this book is the little girls’ relationship dynamic.

But now her secret is about to reveal because somebody KNOWS what she did!!!

But at the beginning of the book, we may realize Heather needs more help for her well-being because she has killed her childhood friend Becca, got away with murder.

2.5 rounded up 3 mysterious, witch-y, reddish, mouth full of dirt-ish, supernatural, bloody but still not quite satisfying stars!Īs soon as I read the blurb, I thought `Oh yes this is it! Rituals for conjuring a witch, little girls’ secret murder club, a story moving back and forth between four girls who are a little obsessed about spooky things from serial killers, murderers, horror stories and Heather’s grown up version who became a psychiatrist helps the troubled children.
