Dead Teenager Movie
Publisher: Little Island Books Publication Date: 20/08/2026
ISBN-13: 9781918353020 Type: Paperback
In this YA slasher, a horror-obsessed girl joins a group of wealthy teens for a wild weekend in a remote house, only to discover that the local murder rumours may be far more real - and far closer - than she imagined.
She loved scary movies… until she had the starring role.
A spree of murders is haunting Cork city, leaving behind stories of ghost parties and dismembered janitors, of dead diner owners and folkloric entities.
Die-hard horror buff April ignores it all for one perfect weekend of debauchery with Carl and his group of rich, hot and dangerously irresistible friends.
Together, they head to the West Cork countryside for an unforgettable trip before college begins. But in a remote mountainside house with views to die for, the dream party turns into a nightmare. Because some stories don't stay stories. And someone, or something, inside the house wants more than fear. They want blood.

Tuesdays Are Just As Bad
Publisher: The Mercier Press Ltd Publication Date: 08/06/2018
ISBN-13: 9781781175644 Type: Paperback
When troubled teenager Adam wakes in hospital after a suicide attempt, he finds that he has company. A ghost. Or perhaps it's something else. This 'ghost' is as confused as Adam about the whole situation. Narrated from the point of view of this 'ghost', 'Tuesdays are just as Bad' follows Adam as he attempts to return to normal life - whatever that is. When Adam makes new friends via his counselling sessions, he ends up developing a relationship with one of the gang, Aoife. Surrounded by these friends, Adam starts to feel happy again. The 'ghost', however, becomes jealous. In the end, he decides that the only way he can be free of this feeling is to isolate Adam so he can have him all to himself, with catastrophic results.
A mix of Louise O'Neill's 'Asking for It' and 'Nothing Tastes as Good' by Claire Hennessy.
