Book Synopsis

A senior year goodbye morphs into carnival carnage in this sickly-sweet, young adult slasher novel - the first in the Tastes Like Candy series from Jessica Lacy (Ivy Tholen). *** Everyone at Pritchett High wants an invitation to the Senior Scavenge, and this year, Violet Warren and her friends are the lucky ones. Eight girls will break into the Poison Apple Carnival for a nighttime scavenger hunt - a school tradition to welcome the best and brightest into their senior year. But warm welcomes turn into gory goodbyes as the scavenger hunters become the hunted. One by one, Violet's friends are viciously murdered by a mysterious masked figure running loose through the carnival grounds. As she watches her friends die in a series of increasingly bizarre attacks, she must fight to survive while trying to uncover the killer's sinister motive. Can Violet survive this roller coaster ride from hell? Or will her head end up on a cotton candy pike? A young adult thriller treat, Tastes Like Candy is the first in a series of creepy teen horror books - perfect as a Halloween read during the spooky season or all year round!
