One week until the Spooktastic book fair! I cannot wait to see everyone and spend a day with Halloween People, talking and *buying* bookish things...oh! Which reminds me! @copperdogbooks.bsky.social will have early copies of PENNIES - a Blight Harbor prequel - for sale. Who will I see next weekend?

SINNERS has hit HBO Max!

This southern gothic horror has vampires, an incredible soundtrack, and sweltering hot romance!

If you are looking for horror in the same vein, sink your teeth into RING SHOUT, BUFFALO HUNTER HUNTER, and VAMPIRES OF EL NORTE!

What to read if you loved Sinners.

Ringshout by P Djeli Clark.

"Maryse and her magical sword cutting through KKK demons fueled on hate with
her band of sharpshooters and explosive experts was an edge of your seat historical dark fantasy
read." -Jessi

What to read if you loved Sinners.
Vampires of El Norte by Isabel Cañas.
"A sweeping, sumptuously-written historical horroromance set during the early days of the Mexican-
American War."
- Jessie

What to read if you loved Sinners.

The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones.

A chilling historical horror novel tracing the life of a vampire who haunts the fields of the Blackfeet reservation looking
for justice.

Trans rights are humans rights! Full stop.

My son: So, I apparently misinterpreted Dad when he told me to go to @copperdogbooks.bsky.social and get you a card for Mother’s Day.

Me: I actually think this is better than any greeting card you could’ve bought!
