Thrilled that The Antidote made the National Book Award shortlist for fiction. If you haven't read it yet, I strongly rec this one. & Horror readers, if you want to try a lit fic this one conversation with Buffalo Hunter Hunter, Witchcraft for Wayward Girls and The Reformatory. It's just wonderful.

YESSSS I love that so much I think that’s absolutely the intention of the book without any pretense. It’s such a cool fun book so happy to hear that.

This is the perfect read for this time of year. It’s not just for people who have a hard time with horror movies per se. It’s for people who love horror point blank. Such a smart and cool book.

Today’s the day @barnesandnoble.com recommends you read WHEN THE WOLF COMES HOME. They are professionals; who are we to disagree with their assessment??

Welp, I'm about to start a 17-day odyssey that involves a lot of flying to a lot of different cities and I can only hope and pray I'm able to keep my schedule intact given the chaos happening with government-controlled airport personnel.

That said: Come see me at one of these great events!

Lmao screams 🤣😭 listen I was admittedly low-key delighted by a young adult Christmas romance, having a simple little peppermint, scratch, and sniff sticker in the right corner of the cover, but I have a LINE.

I’m a nerd and I get really excited when Barnes & Noble adds a “Notes from Your Bookseller” banner to my books on their website. ❤️ B&N always has my back!!

Screenshot of B&N website shows a “Notes from Your Bookseller” banner above the product description:

“A small New England town is rocked by an unspeakable tragedy that sends chills throughout the community in this supernatural horror.”

🤣 sometimes at night I won’t even come downstairs for a snack because I am too scared to go downstairs alone. If I had those on my wall, I would simply never leave my bedroom after dark.🤣
