When Denise and her friends discover an anonymously written book that points to the school's deadly past, they realize a copycat is stalking the halls of Bliss High.

My Review
My Review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ (3 Stars)
I recently had the chance to read It's Your Turn to Die by Jessica Blade, thanks to an ARC from BookSprout. While I initially had trouble getting into the story, once it picked up, I found myself intrigued by the plot and overall storyline.
As a YA horror novel, it definitely has that eerie, suspenseful feel—reminiscent of classic Goosebumps books. However, I did find it harder to connect with some of the characters, likely due to the younger target audience. That said, the book still delivered a decent amount of tension and thrills, making it an enjoyable read for fans of the genre.
While it wasn’t my favorite, I can see younger readers or those who love YA horror really enjoying it. If you're in the mood for a spooky, fast-paced story, this one might be worth checking out!
