The book in the picture is actually one pick but two books! It's a two in one set of horror novels: Killer on the Road and The Babysitter Lives by Stephen Graham Jones. They're both inspired by urban legends, so I'm excited to delve in because they're the perfect segue into October!

It is extremely compelling so far; she handles very challenging themes with an elegance and frankness that's always so refreshing even when the subject matter is difficult (but necessary) to confront.
