From South Africa comes a truly creepy horror debut, widely praised for its originality, social commentary, and roller coaster twistsDan works at a mall bookstore where nothing ever happens. An angsty emo-kid selling mid-list books to mid-list people for minimum wage, he hates his job. Rhoda has dragged her babysitting charge to the mall so she can meet her coke dealer. Now the kid's run off, and she has two hours to find him. She hates her life. Rhoda bullies Dan into helping her, but as they explore the neon-lit corridors behind the mall, disturbing text messages lure them into the bowels of the building, where old mannequins are stored in grave-like piles and raw sewage drips off the ceiling. The only escape is down, and before long Dan and Rhoda are trapped in a service elevatorand it's not stopping at the bottom floor. Plummeting into the earth, Dan and Rhoda enter a sinister underworld that mirrors their worst fears.

The concept was good but I find that for a book like this, the reader has to root for the main character(s). Unfortunately I disliked Rhoda & Dan so it was difficult to care about what happened. 2⭐️

This weekend I'm celebrating my youngest daughter's 12th birthday (birthday today, far left) and my oldest daughter's 14th birthday (birthday tomorrow, far right). We're in Richmond for the night. We went to Cheesecake Factory, the shopped at the mall, and now we're at the hotel getting ready to go to the trampoline park. Not much time for reading yet, but I plan to this evening. We have adjoining rooms. So nice they can enjoy a trip like this. 🎂

I heart this book so much! Snarky dark humor and horror that pokes fun at consumer culture, courtesy of Sarah Lotz and Louis Greenberg. Oh, so awesome!
