I Am Not a Serial Killer by Dan Wells

John Wayne Cleaver is obsessed with serial killers. With a name like "John Wayne" as a nod to Gacy and the last name "Cleaver," how could he not be? Plus, his mom and aunt are morticians, and he's often allowed to help prepare bodies. When it becomes clear that a killer is in town, John is fascinated. However, even he's frightened when he discovers who -- and what -- the killer is.

Recommended to older teen readers with an interest in the strange, the otherworldly, and the unexpected. This is the first volume of a planned trilogy.
