My Best Friend's Exorcism -- Grady Hendrix, Paperback
From the New York Times best-selling author of The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires, this unholy hybrid of Beaches and The Exorcist blends teen angst and unspeakable horrors into a pulse-pounding supernatural thriller. The year is 1988. High school sophomores Abby and Gretchen have been best friends since fourth grade. But after an evening of skinny-dipping goes disastrously wrong, Gretchen begins to act...different. She's moody. She's irritable. And bizarre incidents keep happening whenever she's nearby. Abby's investigation leads her to some startling discoveries--and by the time their story reaches its terrifying conclusion, the fate of Abby and Gretchen will be determined by a single question: Is their friendship powerful enough to beat the devil? Blending pulse-pounding supernatural horror with razor-sharp humor, rich 1980s nostalgia, and deeply authentic emotion, Grady Hendrix delivers a novel that's as heartbreaking as it is terrifying. Every shocking twist is grounded in the powerful bond between two teenage girls determined to protect one another against impossible odds, creating a story that has earned its place as a modern horror favorite.
