    About this audiobook

    Stephen King meets Pretty Little Liars in this pulse-pounding novel from the author of The Merciless
     
    Just back from rehab, Casey regrets letting her friends Shana, Julie, and Aya talk her into coming to Survive the Night, an all-night, underground rave in a New York City subway tunnel. Surrounded by frightening drugs and menacing strangers, Casey doesn’t think Survive the Night could get any worse...
     
    ...until she comes across Julie’s mutilated body in a dank, black subway tunnel, red-eyed rats nibbling at her fingers. Casey thought she was just off with some guy—no one could hear her getting torn apart over the sound of pulsing music. And by the time they get back to the party, everyone is gone.
     
    Desperate for help, Casey and her friends find themselves running through the putrid subway tunnels, searching for a way out. But every manhole is sealed shut, and every noise echoes eerily in the dark, reminding them they’re not alone.
     
    They’re being hunted.
     
    Trapped underground with someone—or something—out to get them, Casey can’t help but listen to Aya’s terrified refrain: “We’re all gonna die down here.”

      A creepy delight that pulls you in one direction where you think there's a serial killer running amok in NYC abandoned subway tunnels. As soon as you get your head wrapped around that, you're swung in a completely different direction that's part supernatural, part cautionary tale, with an abundance of gore. Altogether a very satisfying read for fans of industrial strength creepiness.
    • 5/5
      That was pretty intense... Great book if you like YA monster horror.
    • 5/5
      This book was so good!! I would recommend it to anyone who like creepy adventure type books. Loved the premise and the twist was something I actually did not see coming for once! I'm so glad I picked this up!
    • 4/5
      Casey gets out of rehab and goes back to her crappy friend Shana, who wants to go to an underground rave. Casey and her ex, Sam, and company all go to the rave and things spiral downwards to horrifying results.


      This was Vega's first book, and I see it has a bad rating. I personally liked it, it had elements of Lovecraft. The gore isn't as bad as The Merciless books.
    • 3/5
      A promising start to a horror story (though it took a bit long to get to the scary part), but it kind of fizzled out. The actual "monster" felt like a stretch after the build-up.

      I felt like while this was an excellent portrayal of a formerly drug-addicted teen struggling to overcome and stay off the drugs despite peer pressure, it couldn't mesh that interesting story with the horror story.
    • 3/5
      First of all: LOVE the cover. Love, love, love. And that's about the only thing to love about this book. After a group of friends are held hostage in an underground nightclub, they must battle a monster (of sorts) in order to "survive the night." No explanation is ever given for this monster or for the people who hold the teens hostage. It's confusing and that absolutely detracts for the potentially frightening experiences therein.
    • 3/5
      Casey just got out of rehab, but she totally insists it wasn't a big deal. She doesn't have a problem. Really. To show her parents she's really changed her wild ways, she goes to a sleepover with some of her old squeaky clean friends. Unfortunately, her best friend and enabler Shana whisks her away for a night of adventure and debauchery. First, they, plus a couple of their other friends, go to a club where her ex Sam is playing with his band. All of them decide to go to this Survive the Night rave party in the sewers that has a secret, exclusive location. Then things start to go bad. Despite Casey's efforts to stay off drugs, Shana drugs her anyway and Casey stumbles about for a bit, hallucinating. She sees one of her friends disemboweled, but no one believes her because of the drugs. It turns out that there is something in the tunnels lurking, hungry, and everywhere.

      Survive the Night is a straight forward teen horror novel. Our protagonist Casey doesn't want to admit she's addicted to drugs and wants to keep hanging out with the people who got her into the drugs in the first place. Never a good idea. I sympathized with her even though I thought she was a total moron at times. Her addiction stems from a sports injury that left her convalescing for an extended period of time. Shana and her risky antics make Casey feel alive again, so she doesn't recognize when things go from fun to scary as they both bargain with shady people, get into harder drugs, and do riskier things for an emotional or chemical high. Casey succumbs to peer pressure when she first tries to go the straight and narrow when she comes out of rehab, but Shana and her "friends" mock her until she goes with whatever they're doing. As the plot goes on, Casey goes through some changes. She first blames Shana for all her problems, but then accepts that she's the one who takes the drugs and goes with the risky behaviors. I liked Casey, but she's about the only tolerable character in the book.

      The rest of the characters are either completely insufferable or glorified cardboard cutouts. Shana is the most horrible best friend ever. Not only does she get Casey into drugs and craziness, but she intentionally puts their lives in danger in a variety of ways: she likes to go to parties and ditch Casey with random creepy strangers; she drives dangerously for "fun"; she volunteers Casey for prostitution in order to get drugs; and finally, she makes Casey take drugs against her will by drugging her soda even though she clearly stated that she didn't want any drugs. All of this is just gross. Who would want a friend like that? I found her completely unlikeable and incredibly stupid and selfish. She had no redeeming qualities at all. The rest of the characters are unremarkable and interchangeable. I couldn't even keep them straight except for an object they carried or something like that.

      Survive the Night reminds me a lot of the older horror teen novels like R.L. Stine's Fear Street series and books by Christopher Pike and Caroline B. Cooney. These authors got me into horror, but I don't really read them anymore because the characters and plots are not complex or interesting to me as an adult. This book is significantly more gory than these authors, but it just doesn't have the suspense or interesting cast of characters I enjoy reading. The villain of the piece doesn't come with any sort of explanation or backstory, which I would have liked. The throwback aspect is cool, but I've moved on. I hope it gets others into horror like books like this did for me.
    • 4/5
      LOVED the beginning, but it began to fall apart for me in the end. The writing got choppy and the ending was confusing and a bit disjointed. All in all, this was a great YA horror read.
    • 2/5
      The cover on this book is eye catching. Than you read the summary on the back and you think I have to check this book out. Well I want to tell you that if the characters in this book were endearing this would have changed my perspective of the book better. I found that none of them are people that I would want to hang out with. However I have to tell you that I did not expect what came at me when the truth was revealed. Yet it was scary some more nothing that nightmares are made of. I did see a glimmer in the author's writing and would have this author another chance.
