MASCULINE METALLIC NOISES

#from dry by neil shusterman ^ #reading bc i was nostalgic for a survivalist YA novel #big fan of the characterization mostly #although so far its like pretty bog standard survivalist horror albeit very well written #im only like halfway through though so we'll see if it gets as scary as the recommendation i saw says itll be #i'm probably just spoiled from reading every survivalist book i could get my hands on as a kid #including the one where the kid realizes his abusive father has fabricated the entire disaster #and also the dad is forcing his wife to have children with the intent of eating them #or that one where towards the end of the novel the MC realizes her fellow survivor #was a hallucination brought on by her infected piercing and that hed died shortly after the plane crash #...or that one where a weight loss drug makes a cruise ship full of rich people go insane and start eating each other #er. not eating. just killing each other i think. #OR THE ONE WHERE A BUNCH OF KIDS LIVE IN A LOCKED DOWN SUPERSTORE. long series #and i cant remember the specifics but it had some fuuuuuuucked moments.
