80’s slasher flick set in 2020

I read this in one night. It was so fun I couldn’t put it down. The death scenes made me laugh and cringe and my brain squirm. I’m currently in an 80’s-horror-movie-like-book phase and even though it takes place in 2020 with modern technology it really scratched the itch. The characters are mostly fleshed out, but there are many girls in the group which took a little bit to get straight. There was a good amount of description and scene setting so I had a great imagining of it all. Sometimes authors give too much or not enough, for me this was right in the sweet spot. Excited to read her other books if they are anywhere near as fun and engaging as this one!
