I finished Cicada by Tanya Pell. It was awesome from start to finish I loved it so much! The main character was great and her asshole boyfriend was super hateable. How they got out of the predicament was very smart and that ending though! Wonderful!

Cover of Cicada by Tanya Pell. It is a black background with a white diagram of a cicada with lines pointing to bits of the cicada and names them like the nodus, peripheral membrane and leading edge. Some names are blacked out and replaced with rage, pure evil smiley face and hunger.

I finished this book today. It was awesome. Excellent storytelling, wonderfully satisfying ending and I just loved the rage. Definitely a good for her horror.

If you see this, quote it with a horror film you love
The movie poster of 13 Ghosts. It has a picture of a face with its mouth and eyes wide open and the title is in the mouth. The face is made up of lots of pictures of other peoples faces. At the top it says “Misery loves company.” It is mainly yellow and orange.

What was your first horror novel, and how old were you?

I read Superstitious by R. L. Stine which is his adult horror book when I was 10 or so. After that I read King books from age 12.

Picture of a kindle showing “Maybe I am sick. Maybe that’s why I keep feeling so strangely, why I am a magnet for sin and lustful feelings with this new body I didn’t ask for. Can you tell when you’ve become possessed? Can you feel it? Are there warning signs, or hints along the way? Maybe this is all a test. Maybe every woman goes through this, and I am just doing a worse job than everyone else. If it is a test, I am definitely failing.” From American Rapture.

Just finished #sorrowland by Rivers Solomon for the second time. I’m reading it for my queer book club. I enjoyed it more the second time around! Great story and powerful ending.

Six Rooms by Gemma Amor.

It’s tour day at the Sunshine Chateau. Will you make it out?

This was a really good book. I enjoyed how the story unfolded and how it all hung together at the end. Ending was very satisfying in different ways.

Scooby was there the whole way through this blanket. Now we are sharing it but it’s not big enough for us both!
