A darkly hilarious contemporary realistic young adult novel about growing up and finding your place in the world, perfect for fans of Me and Earl and the Dying Girl and Running With Scissors.
Dario Heyward knows one thing: He’s never going back to Moldavia Studios, the iconic castle that served as the set, studio, and home to the cast and crew of dozens of cult classic B-horror movies. It’s been three years since Dario’s even seen the place, after getting legally emancipated from his father, the infamous director of Moldavia’s creature features.
But then Dario’s brother invites him home to a mysterious ceremony involving his father and a tribute to his first film—The Curse of the Mummy’s Tongue. Dario swears his homecoming will be a one-time visit. A way for him to get closure on his past—and reunite with Hayley, his first love and costar of Zombie Children of the Harvest Sun, a production fraught with real-life tragedy—and say good-bye for good. But the unthinkable happens—Dario gets sucked back into the twisted world of Moldavia and the horrors, both real and imagined, he’s left there.
With only months to rescue the sinking studio and everyone who has built their lives there, Dario must confront the demons of his past—and the uncertainties of his future. But can he escape the place that’s haunted him his whole life?

Review
"A darkly hilarious contemporary" is what this book is. It's one of those books that gave me a rollarcoaster ride of feelings. It's on the same leave of 'Me and Earl
and the Dying Girl', witched I liked, thought it was a funny read but I'm 85% sure that I like and enjoyed this one more. Made it was the characters that pulled me in. I found that they all played well of each others and moved the story along well. I don't know what more to say other then this was a perfect summer read, half contemporary the other half dark hilarious makes for a fun pageturner that will leave you wanted to read just one more page!
