My Best Friend's Exorcism

My Best Friend's Exorcism by Grady Hendrix is a funny, creepy, and also heartwarming take on an exorcism story. When Gretchen begins acting strangely, her best friend Abby is determined to discover the cause. Little does she know it may be more than she imagined. This book has everything. From the expected demonic possession elements to a comedic faith and fitness show to 80s music and more. Hendrix does a great job blending campy comedy with genuinely scary stuff (while still having tenderness and warmth present in the book). Personally I think he does a better job here of blending these elements than in some of his more recent books, but that's just personal taste. The paperback edition has awesome art on the front and back of the book. This book is followed by a spiritual successor, The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires, which is set in the same town years later but focuses on a new cast of characters. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
