A review by jessplayin
The Loop by Jeremy Robert Johnson

5.0

Insanely creative, insanely gory, and insanely good. Jeremy Robert Johnson captures a blend of the Purge meets Stranger Things so well that I couldn't put this down. An absolute thrill ride that makes you think just as much as it makes you furiously turn the pages. I couldn't get over how seamlessly deep metaphors about class systems and capitalism as well as the way violence permeates our lives got mixed in with crude humor. Johnson balances a lot of topics really well and delivers a dark punch to this novel that leaves you feeling satisfied. I cannot thank NetGalley and Gallery/Saga Press for the advanced copy.
