the cover of Clown in a Cornfield 2: frendo lives by adam cesare in front of velvet movie theater seats
Genre: YA Horror Strengths: improved pacing, tense environment Version read: Kindle
I love a book that takes a swing on conspiracy theorists and "truthers." In my opinion Frendo Lives improves almost every aspect of Clown in a Cornfield. The kills are better, the commentary more biting, and overall more compelling. In a small town it feels like you're always being watched or talked about. That feeling explodes exponentially as the outside world becomes obsessed with the events of the first book and it makes every setting feel unsafe. Quinn, Rust, and Cole might not be as defenseless anymore, but when every stranger could potentially be a dangerous Frendo fanatic there are few limits to how much brutality will follow. 4/5
For some reason #FrendoLives doesn't seem to be as popular as the first Clown in a Cornfield book, but I think it improves it in every area. The story is bigger, gorier, and more dangerous than ever. Do you think it suffers from middle movie syndrome? #bookreview #ClownInACornfield #horror #clowns
