A Splatterpunk-Slasher-Coming of Age Story
4 out of 5 stars
I have to say starting off, I wasn’t quite sure where Fat Camp was going for about the first 10 chapters. Was it an autobiography? A love story? A story of friendship at Summer Camp? But really its all of those things as so much more! A coming of age story of a lovable, overweight young man, who is learning not only who he is, but what he is capable of if he only learns to believe in himself.
This story is sure to appeal to anyone who loves a classic teenage summer slasher setting offering a little violence, gore, and sex; right alongside with some good old fashioned marshmallow roasting over the campfire. Chock-full of iconic throwbacks to some of our favorite teenage slasher movies of yesteryear.
Overall I thought that this story was well written, well executed, and has a relatable telling of discussing some heavy-hitting topics. Fat Camp could be a bit crass and crude, but aren’t all splatterpunk novels supposed to be a little?? Definitely one of the more interesting horror stories I’ve read in a while.
