Tour Schedule:
I was intrigued to read a Delilah S. Dawson horror book and was so excited that she published a Middle Grade Horror which I love love love. I thought that Brie was an okay main character but would of preferred if the book was centred around the teens she met. The atmosphere was there and i did enjoy it in parts but others not so much in other parts when Brie was with the Emsf. There will be readers who will absolutely eat this book up and ask for more.
For all the above reasons Ride or Die Receives 3 stars
