Murdered bad girl Annie Lane is back from the grave and hellbent on revenge . . . she just has to figure out who killed her. This fast-paced thriller by a talented debut delivers a horror-infused hunt for justice that's at once furiously feminist, darkly funny, and utterly satisfying. Between her careless mom, her cheating ex-boyfriend, and her rotten reputation around town, Annie Lane is used to being left behind. But she's never been left for dead before-until she wakes up to find her body's been dumped on a mountain rumored to raise the dead. Annie can't remember who killed her, but she'll stop at nothing to figure it out and make them pay. Because girls like her don't get justice unless they take it for themselves. Codie Crowley's propulsive debut presents a furious and cathartic thriller skewering society's condemnation of "unlikeable" girls.

"This was such a fun ride. Well written, fast paced, and sometime laugh out loud funny. A great read to start off the spooky season."
Megan Jungers
"This book is about a girl named Annie Lane, known for her troubled life, who wakes up to find her body dumped on a mountain rumored to resurrect the dead. Determined to uncover the truth behind her murder, she embarks on a mission to find her killer and seek justice, refusing to let her past define her fate.<br/><br/><br/>This book is perfect for fall reading. This had a lot of twists and turns. If you liked the Movie Jennifer's Body and Boo, Bitch then you will like this book. I haven't read anything like this before. This would be a perfect horror movie"

"⭐️⭐️/5: What I liked about this book was it was giving mild Jennifer's Body vibes. I loved that movie. And the mystery upon mystery was nice.<br/>What I didn't like about it. The MC was not likeable for me. And some of the other characters, I'm not sure why they were even written. The setting for nearly each chapter was all over the place. She took entirely too long to figure out what happens to her. I as the reader I still am not sure what she was. The words dead and mermaid came up. Did she end up with superpowers? I don't know. I couldn't wait to finish this book.<br/>She does eventually figure out what happened and solves another mystery but we never (as far as I remember ) figure out what she became."
