Review: The Graveyard Shift by Maria Lewis
On the postcard/author letter that came with my copy Maria Lewis describes The Graveyard Shift as ‘my wee love letter to Final Girls, slashers, pop culture, hip hop, film history, true crime, media literacy and horror movies’ & if you’re a horror fan that’s everything you need to know about this book.
