98 New Mystery Books That'll Have You on the Edge of Your Seat

Lisa Springer's YA debut, "There's No Way I'd Die First," puts an expert final girl to the test when the stuff of horror movies becomes a reality the night of her Halloween party. Noelle is a horror-movie aficionado who dreams of popularity and throws a Halloween bash meant to send her social cache skyrocketing. All seems to be going perfectly when even powerful influencers make an appearance — that is, until a clown hired for the party begins killing the guests. Noelle's arsenal of horror-movie factoids is now the teen's survival guide, and Noelle will pull out all the stops to make sure she makes it to the end.
