About this audiobook
Bloomsbury presents How to Survive a Slasher by Justine Pucella Winans, read by SJ Valiquette.
You’re Not Supposed to Die Tonight meets Scream in this YA slasher that turns classic horror tropes on their heads.
Few people can say they faced the infamous Satterville Wolf Man and lived. But CJ Smith can.
She doesn’t talk about that, though.
CJ has survived the horror movie that is her life by following one rule: blend in and stay out of it. But that’s hard to do when your trauma gets turned into a bestselling book series. The Slasherville books are a true crime phenomenon, documenting the Wolf Man massacres that changed CJ’s life forever. CJ hates everything about the books and their fans, but at this point she’s just grateful there aren’t any more murders to write about.
Until one day when an unpublished Slasherville book shows up on her doorstep predicting new Wolf Man killings. CJ is sure it’s a bad prank. But then the events in the book start coming true, and when CJ breaks her one rule, the Final Girl—the person who, according to the book, was supposed to stop the Wolf Man—ends up dead. Suddenly, blending in and staying out of it is not an option, and CJ will have to use everything she knows about the rules of horror to make it out alive.
