Nightmarish Novels - My Heart Is a Chainsaw by Stephen Graham Jones

"You won’t find a more hardcore eighties-slasher-film fan than high school senior Jade Daniels. And you won’t find a place less supportive of girls who wear torn T-shirts and too much eyeliner than Proofrock, nestled eight thousand feet up a mountain in Idaho, alongside Indian Lake, home to Camp Blood – the site of a massacre fifty years ago.
As tourists go missing and the tension between her community and the celebrity newcomers to the Indian Lake shore heads towards a tipping point, Jade knows this is the start of a slasher.
But what kind? Who’s wearing the mask? Jade’s got an encyclopedic recall of every horror movie on the shelf, but… will that help her survive? Can she get a final girl trained enough to stop all this from happening? Does she even want to?"
