If I could use one word to describe this book, it would be….gross. But like, in the most delightful way possible! (If you like gory stuff, that is. If you don’t, this book is absolutely not for you.) I love really dark disturbing shit, so this one was right up my alley! I loved how grotesque and gruesome this book was. I knew in the first chapter I was going to love that part of the story. And love it I […]
What. T h e. F U C K. did I just read?! I don’t even know how to properly rate this book. This was 10/10 the weirdest, most disturbing book I’ve ever read in my life. It started off fairly normal – a pandemic sweeps across the nation and changes life as everyone knows it (much like COVID) – but then shit starts getting certifiably fucked. It was morbidly fascinating, though (in the way a train […]
Don’t open the door. Okay, this was awesome!! I love pretty much anything set in space, but space horror is about my favorite sub-genre (maybe tied with Japanese fantasy) and it’s SO hard to find good ones. (Or any in general – give me recs!!) This book gave me major Alien vibes, and Jack is totally the new Ripley. It even had an enigmatic android sidekick, Watson. I freaking loooved Watson! It/she was by far my favorite character. She reminded […]
I *almost* downloaded this book on Netgalley, but I’ve been trying really hard to not download anything else until I catch up on my backlist reviews. I ended up not needing to, because my bookstabestie Christy sent it to me (thanks Christy!!), which was a good thing because….this has been my least favorite Kingfisher novel thus far. Which makes me SO sad. The other two horror books I’ve read of hers (Hollow Places & Twisted Ones) were EPIC, so my […]
This book was awesome! It had a very Bird Box meets Some Quiet Place feel to it, but was wholly unique and stands out on its own. I’m honestly shocked that the ratings for this book are so low. For once I was the black sheep in a good way! My main complaint is that I didn’t connect to the characters like I’d hoped to. The only one I really cared about was the dog, Jake. And it’s not that […]
Are you a fan of space books? Are you also a fan of the movie Ghost Ship? LOOK NO FURTHER! This book is for you! And also, this book was 100% for me. I am a huge space horror fan, and it’s sooo hard to find them. Or good ones, at least. This was one of my most anticipated books of 2022, so I was super jazzed when I got it as an eARC in late 2020 from NetGalley. And […]
