@danhelyer, not only do I agree with your Battle Royale/Hunger Games take, but I put it in writing, in my book about horror novels. It's a ripoff. No two ways about it

This book is going to make me broke! Having read a lot of these books, there’s still a shit ton that I’ve missed. Loving the quick rapid fire reviews and at only 50 pages in, there’s mention of my favorite horror author Greg Gifune!😃
