Extremely liberal, ex-pat. Will delete MAGAts & other deplorables without delay. No DMs & if you're not dressed, don't bother. NOT THE SLIGHTEST BIT INTERESTED IN YOUR RELIGION! If you're following 40k already, why bother?
"She was sickened by the scenes that she saw.
Families laughing.
Kids dressed as elves.

Carol singers…"

Xmas horror from the author of "The Other World" duology, incl. "Teddy" & "Sin". Interesting take on the "composition" of Santa!

"What will you give me, if I give you a basket of kisses?"

W.March's 1954 "The Bad Seed" is one of the 1st books to address high-functioning sociopathy &/or even juvenile delinquency. A tense & troubling look at a child who feels nothing about killing.

"We were laboratory animals. We were sacrifices."

This book is based on some fairly interesting concepts but gets bogged down in too much detail & a lack of any real surprises, despite taking place in an alt. history of WWII.

"The transorbital lobotomy, esp. for a child, was seen as utterly barbaric."

ARC of Viggy Parr Hampton's upcoming book "A Veritable Household Pet" (publ' Jan28,'26). A truly horrifying tale following 2 sisters even if it's arguably not a horror story!

"If (they) were not victorious…it could well mean the end of human life on earth."

I've wanted to try one of the late author's books for a while but this re-release came w/ tons of editorial mistakes, a dull plot, & v.clichéd characters!

"It’s a cruelty of life that we can never protect our own innocence."

A whiny protagonist (she's 24!) + using "satanism" (w/out explanations) does not count as horror to me. Great if you love YA but I was hoping for tons more (the pot'l is there!)

"I have never felt more alone."

"Warthog" is a slowburn mindfuck where you will question if anything you've read is real or just the continuation of the almost in(s)ane Seussian rhymes that begin this adventure. Fantastic!

"You want…a little treat? Yeah? You want some cocaine?"

Is "Cocaine Bear" (2020) the novelization or basis for the film "Cocaine Bear" (2023) starring the late Ray Liotta? My definitive, no-doubt-at-all answer: well, probably not. But it is fun.

"I’m not fucking Jason. That would be a stupid name for a slasher maniac."

A fast but hilarious take on the summer camp / slasher horror tropes we all know and love with more than it's share of funny as well as stabby bits.

"This wasn’t right; possums were supposed to play dead or something, not attack."

Great small-town, utterly creepy feel! Defo a fun read w/ some cool twists & turns! All proceeds go to the WWF, so don't steal your copy!

"The second we go back, they're going to be on us like stupidity on Twitter."

2 great creature features as mutated rats take over NYC! First the "poison" makes them aggressive, then COVID makes them giants! Shea remains one of my all-time horror faves!

My 2d SGJ book & it was…um…ok, what the hell was this about? JK! Very well-written & a hell of a story!

"Some story. Entertaining for sure, but it mostly just added up to one big what the fuck?"

A very funny yet also tense tale with a whole lot of crazy things happening at once! Noir mystery done just the way I like it!

Happy launch day to @christullbane.bsky.social whose 2nd book in his amazing LitRPG series comes out TODAY! Again, he delivers an exciting, action- & intrique-filled fantasy tale that you don't want to miss!

"Underestimate nuns at your peril… the instant you let your guard down, they’ll make mincemeat of you."

Um, literally. A mostly funny adventure pitting the MIB (Catholic version) vs. some weird & hungry "nuns"! Cultural references & mucho ha-ha's!

Europe changed clocks last night. We - including the dog - hate this. We're gaining maybe 2-3 weeks of slightly brighter mornings, noting this is the time of year it typically rains from mid-Oct to the start of Dec so it doesn't matter anyway. What a fvcking stupid system.

"Cows taste like heaven but ya can't trust 'em a single fvckin' inch."

✋1 of the best written books I've read in a while, wonderful prose&execution!
🤚1 of the most disgusting&vile books I've EVER read. Not for the faint of heart...or vegetarians! Moo!

"Old age isn’t so bad, considering the alternative."

An interesting if not often predictable read, blending the grumpy old-mannness of "A Man Called Ove" with the telekinetic horror of "Carrie" (an obvious combination, right?).

"How little most people comprehend of the white-hot power of buried evil."

Another fantastic & highly imaginative offer from VPH, my 3rd already this year! A mix of a CDC frontline battle vs. an unknown outbreak, a haunted + abandoned theme park & more!

All kidding aside, this book is awesome! Watch this space for my Release Day plug!
