Summary

A young woman’s secretive Midwestern town is engulfed by a mysterious plague of tornadoes every generation—and she must escape it before it claims her.

Stephen King’s The Mist meets David Lynch’s Twin Peaks in this inventive, mind-bending horror-thriller.

In a small town tucked away in the Midwestern corn fields, the adults whisper about Tornado Day. Our narrator, a high school sophomore, has never heard this phrase but she soon discovers its terrible meaning: a plague of sentient tornadoes is coming to destroy them.

The only thing that stands between the town and total annihilation is a teen boy known as the tornado killer. Drawn to this enigmatic boy, our narrator senses an unnatural connection between them. But the adults are hiding a secret about the origins of the tornadoes and the true nature of the tornado killer—and our narrator must escape before the primeval power that binds them all comes to claim her.

Audaciously conceived and steeped in existential dread, this genre-defying novel reveals the myth-bound madness at the heart of American life.

Unsatisfying and immature

The idea was great. Lots of things don't make sense though or followed up. Characters are underdeveloped stereotypes. it's jarring because you're wondering why people aren't questioning things or doing something. The main character is weirdly incomplete.. like how a middle aged man might imagine a teenage girl thinks. Very silly book. Hopefully a film adaptation will make something more coherent. Shame really
